Chinese E-image manufactures tripods and video heads.
The GH03F is their smallest oil-damped head, with a built-in counterweight spring and a really long control lever. We therefore recommend that you cut it yourself to get a length of the lever more suitable for binoculars. You can choose right or left side mounting of the lever. Knobs and controls are a little scattered, but there is nothing wrong with the functionality. The most important thing is that the movement both in tilt and panning is smooth and friction-free and with "just enough" resistance even for discerning users. Tilt inertia can be adjusted with the large knob on the left, while panning is preset but lockable with the knob on the bottom left. With the knob slanted in front of the steering wheel, tilt is locked. A locking knob and a safety button (red) ensure locking and balancing of the quick release plate.
The included "sled type" quick release plate is equipped with both 1/4'' and 3/8'' screws. The former, normally considered the most important for binoculars, is mounted in its own small "sled" with a spring-loaded "guide pin" on one side and an alternative threaded location on the other. So good flexibility for mounting various binoculars.
