Indeed a 128 will hold a Sigma 150-500 with camera (which would weigh in at 2.5-3kg) but with a maximum load weight of 4kg it is not designed to hold big prime lenses. I have seen it done and have seen heads break as a results, it's not a risk I'd take or recommend other to take. I'd definitely recommend the 128 for scope work but personally I do not feel that it works so well with a camera. If I do meet up with the OP so he can try the Jobu gimbal the I'll make sure I take a 128 with me too so he can compare for himself. BTW is that your 128 for sale in the ebay link?
