Jobu Designs gimbal?

[Dan Walker]

Am looking for a smaller gimbal type head for my 300F4 + 1.4 D80w/grip combo. Of course I am thinking about the smaller mongoose but found this

with some good reviews

Does anybody know anything about this or should I just go with the mongoose

Dan,

I used Jobu Jr. with 300mm 2.8 lens. It will be ok with 300F4 and 1.4x on D80. It is a nice gimbal but not as smooth as mongoose when it comes to panning.
Also, I did not like the quick lease know on jobu jr. I would prefer mongoose to jobu any day.

thanks for the input, Sid. I was leaning towards the mongoose, just thought Id check this guy out.
