Video: How to Set Up and Use a Gimbal Head for Wildlife Photography

Professional wildlife photographer, Ian Plant, says, “If you are serious about wildlife photography, you will need a gimbal head.” In this video, he will explain the uses of the gimbal head.

Ian recommends keeping the controls loose in order to follow wildlife movement whether a bird in flight or an animal on land.
