"I get the best gear and I'm a very careful user of my gear. After much research, I bought this ballhead. At first it felt great in my hands. The quick release mechanism was odd but I was willing to try it for the strength:weight ratio of the head. The best thing about this head is its strength.

Best Uses
"The 1780QR is the perfect size and weight match for my Gitzo GT2330 legs. The head is very precise and the ease of subtle adjustments is why I use Gitzo. Perfect for my lighter applications of hiking and kayaking. Nice complement for my heavier Gitzo tripods I use for studio applications. "
