"I bought this with the GT2540 tripod, which is fantastic. But I had to replace this awful head.



It's big, heavy, awkward and poorly made.



First the latch spring came lose and was lost. Then the pin from the camera part of the quick release fell out. Then some sort of oil began to seep from the …"  Read Full Review »

"My use - close-ups, landscapes, and with a sidearm.

What's great - The novel orientation. Most ball-heads are vertical, but this one is horizontal, so attached to a sidearm, it's kind of "normal".

What's not so great - Makes me think "out of the box". "

Quick Release Plate Fails

As soon as I started to use the head with the quick release plate, the camera started to move while it was locked in place, and I could not figure out why.

"It's very versatile and reliable. It can hold my 80-400VR Nikkor without a counterweight in various positions. The two issues I have, are it's difficult to bevel and pan (no bubble), and it has knobs instead of rods making it more difficult to finely adjust. "
