The compact aluminium ball head delivers great performance. Whether you are trying to get great portrait or landscape shots, this solid ball-head delivers an incredibly solid grip for load capacities of up to 6kg/13.2lbs, which is perfect for most camera equipment.
For those times when a handle proves invaluable, such as taking video with your DSLR/mirrorless camera, you can easily attach a telescopic handle making it a pan head.
This head comes with ergonomic locking knobs that makes it easy to grip when locking or releasing the movement, even in cold, wet conditions when gloves are needed. These locking knobs offer a solid lock on the ball, a separate friction control for those times when extra control is needed to frame the perfect shot (for example when using a large zoom/telephoto lens) and a separate pan-lock for perfect panoramas.
The ball head uses a standard 3/8" thread with a converter (included) to take is to a 1/4” thread, which allows it to be attached to any travel tripod or monopod with a removable heads.
The extra-long Arca Swiss compatible QS-71 Quick Release plate allows the head to be used with a DSLR, video or spotting scope.
