Q: 1. Can this mount a large body like an R3 with a short/light lens (without a tripod collar)? Will the body clear the vertical arm?

A: A gimbal such as the Oben GH-30 is not meant for mounting the camera body. Instead the foot from a long lens is mounted and the body sits behind the gimbal. So the Canon R3 camera will not fit on the GH-30 but the Canon R3 plus the Canon 70-200 f2.8 RF lens will fit.
