Subha J : How can i turn the friction dial? My ballhead suddenly seems very stuck and Will not move.
Shopper : Is the weight advantage significant enough to justify getting the carbon fiber version?CHUCK B : Without question!JOCK H : Tough call, but I wanted to reduce as much weight as possible to minimize excuses for not carrying the tripod with me. And yes, it worked and the tripod and CB-50DC work very well in the field and they do travel with me!
Shopper : I would like to get an 'L' bracket for this ball head. What style is it?SCOTT R : To my knowledge the release clamp is a standard size arca-swiss type. I've just purchased a Really Right Stuff quick release clamp and L bracket for my Feisol head. I hope it all works. The Feisol head is nice but I wish they'd change the release clamp to a quick release type.CLIFF W : Any Arca Swiss L Bracket should do the trick, I use this one with mine, but there are cheaper options too. <a href="http://www.adorama.com/AWMLB.html" target="_blank">http://www.adorama.com/AWMLB.html</a>ANTHONY T : Arca-Swiss CompatibleALEXANDER G : This will work with arca style plates so RRS or Kirk L pkate shou Id work fine.KEVIN H : It's an Acra-Swiss compatible head. I use a Kirk L bracket for my D600, works fine but you lose out on the safety pin feature on this mounting plate.CHUCK B : any Arca Swiss compatible bracket should work - I use the RRS

Easy To Use

Have used this same head for several years. This order was to replace a unit that was stolen. I am quite pleased with it. PROBLEM My dealing with Feisol is not complete. I returned a CB-40 to Feisol, 7/12/2017 USPS tracking # 1316 1940 0000 1807 6074 for a refund. I have not recieved a refund as yet.

Great ball head

This ball head is great. I like the ability to adjust the amount of tension. I also recommend using an L bracket with this head.

Shooting off Feisol CB-50DC

I upgraded to a Feisol set-up 3342 & CB-50DC from an economy carbon set. It's very stable even with an 18+ lb rifle mounted, not as stable as a RRS but almost for 33% the $ it works great. Only 4* because I would have liked the smaller tension preset knobs with a more progressive feel.

Great Ball Head

I shoot landscapes, family stuff and anything in between. This Ball head is amazing. Movements are smooth as well as panning. Less effort turning the knobs to lock or loose position. No Creep on a heavy rig on my Canon 7D with 70-200 2.8. What could I say, best looking Ball head in the market too. Very happy.
