## Overview

The Benro GD3WH Precision Geared Head is a lightweight, magnesium alloy tripod head designed for professional photographers demanding exact camera positioning. Featuring 3-way geared movement, a quick-release Arca-Swiss compatible plate, and full 360° rotation, it offers unparalleled control for studio, macro, and landscape photography. Despite its robust 6kg load capacity, it weighs just 0.87kg, making it portable without sacrificing durability. Enhanced with bubble levels and reference scales, it guarantees repeatable, precise framing for every shot.

## Description

The GD3WH is designed to offer precision control of camera movement and is ideal for studio still life photographers as well as those landscape photographers chasing golden hours at sunrise and sunset. The GD3WH delivers separate, precision movement in three directions. The controls allow the user to quickly set the camera position before using the large control knobs to apply minute movements guaranteeing absolute precision positioning for that perfectly framed shot. Unlike some other geared heads currently available in the market, the GD3WH uses an Arca-Swiss compatible Quick Release plate allowing the photographer to use different types of heads without the need to change plates. To ensure smooth operation and long life, we use carbon steel and bronze to ensure the movements retain their precision and by using magnesium alloy in its construction, the overall weight of the GD3WH has been kept low, at just 870g, without compromising the maximum load capability of 6kg.

Review: Fantastic Geared head for precision - I like the way you can make micro changes to the position of the camera quickly and very accurately, it is excellent for positioning star tracker units and aligning to Polaris with pin prick precision without having to twist a ball head screw tightly only to find it moves out of position when released, this geared head eleminates all those stresses associated with ball heads. Once you try this method you will never want to use a ball head again! The clutch release system is also a brilliant idea if you want a sudden large change in position without having to turn the gear over and over to reach the desired position, its fast and easy to do, though on a design point the spikey clutch grip piece i think would have been much design had it been based on a pressable locking button because they can be quite awkward to engage because the strong spring system they use, it has quite a lot of spring resistance (too much in my opinion) and a button system would not only make it easier but probably more compact too, which leads me onto the next dislike, the size! The unit is very bulky and i'm sure it could have been completely scaled down a bit so that it is less bulky in size, and finally my final dislike is that the camera swiss arca plate platform is slightly offset from the centre of the tripod which alters the centre of gravity to be more off balance, i would have much preferred to see the camera end up directly centred over the tripod centre for better stability and better centre of gravity. That all said and done with its pros and cons i can with no question at all definitely give it a 5 star review, i would still 100% recommend this geared head over any ball head system out there. Go buy it! It has made my camera tripod life a breeze. The Best camera related purchase of this year for me! It is a fairly expensive purchase but worth every penny its value for money, and compared to the competition it is actually very cheap by comparison. If a version 2 with these design amendments came out it would be totally unbeatable.
Review: Large & clumsy, but works well. - A bit faffy, large and uncomfortable to use quickly due to the heavy springs used on the rapid adjustment knobs. But otherwise works well. No play in any orientation, and holds the camera solidly in position.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A game changer
*by A***N on 17 September 2023*

For the last 20 years I have been a big advocate of ball and socket heads on tripods because they are really quick to use and just work really well. However, I took the plunge and bought this after watching a few YouTube clips and I've got to say I'm really blowing away with how it changes my workflow. It's all about the precision at allows, You can set a landscape shot up with your ball head really quickly, but find tuning the composition is never that easy and quite often you find that when you let go of the camera, it always moves slightly as gravity takes over from your hands. But with this head, And it's gear knobs, You have a different experience, especially when using one of those articulated screens on your camera body. Yesterday I was in the Yorkshire Dales doing landscape and rather than having to kneel down and look through an awkward view finder to get a lowdown photograph, I could pretty much stand above the tripod looking down onto the articulated viewfinder and with the three knobs ease the camera into position and perfectly compose the photo I wanted. No longer having to Neil down and look through the viewfinder. I can't really compare this to other geared heads because I've never used them, but I found this simple and quick once used to it, It is Arca Swiss so You can get tripod plates for all your camera bodies. Very cheaply. Oh I have used it for kitchen and bathroom photography jobs and it was brilliant for those too, very easy to get the camera perfectly level using these control knobs and with a tilt shift lens. You can really blitz these jobs and speed up your editing because everything is correct when you shoot it.
