Exactly as described, arrived as expected, well packed, solid device. very nice. Did not expect the gear release knobs to be as stiffly spung to hold open. You have to hold the release knob to move it freely so you can't really use it like a fluid head. I did not realize that. I would still recommend it.

The Benro GD3WH Geared tripod head is a very well made product. It is very lightweight which makes taking the tripod in the field less tiring. I am highly impressed with the quality of it build and the exactness of its fine tuning. The quick release knobs are quite handy and very intuitive to use. I highly recommend this product and I would not hesitate to buy another one.

Didn't want to spend a fortune on a gear head. The Benro is relatively light weight but appears to be well constructed. Controls are well placed and operation is extremely smooth. Big point was the built-in ARCA clamp. Can use the 'L' bracket and don't have another mount plate to keep track of. Only time will tell on durability but extremely happy with the head so far. Gave it 5 stars since can't really find anything to complain about and was a good price.

The head is what I expected. I took it for a field trial and had generally good feelings. One draw back I found was the difficulty I experienced with the quick setting knobs. The tension was very high and uncomfortable for me. In time, I am sure, I will get used to it. It also took some time getting oriented in the field as to which know pertained to which direction. All of these problems are simply a matter of getting used to it. I did find the head very good in setting the camera in the field. It will be a great asset because it allows for very fine control of camera position. I would absolutely recommend it to any photographer.

This 3 way geared head is solid and substance and supports a medium format mirrorless camera with 100-200mm lens with a 1.4X extension with ease. The reason for not giving it five stars is the high spring tension on the clutch knobs and their design. The shape of the knob is very uncomfortable to move to the release position. The head / gears hold the camera in position without "creep". Used a Arca-Swiss D4 geared head at $1600.00 which did not work as well as this Benro Head. Acra-Swiss head is prettier but does not do the job,
