I bought this head to replace a quite heavy geared head. I was amazed with this product - it's so much lighter and much easier to use. I tested it in Grand Canyon with my 24-104 L lense and it was perfect for long exposures as well as portraits (fast and smooth movement). I absolutely love the grip of the locking mechanism. It is a bit pricy but a definite "must have".

My first purchase of a ball head (previously had "all-in-one" tripod). Just starting to use it, but seems like it will be an excellent product.

The only problem I've had with this lens is that the lens will drop down a little after locking when using a larger telephoto lens. It will hold great after the initial downward movement, but you have to allow for this movement before locking. I believe there are better choices available for this price.

Excellent compact ballhead that combines exceptional ease of use and super stability. Holds well above its rated weight with no loss of stability.

This really is a very good piece of kit; the Italians certainly know how to engineer quality equipment. The ball head is very smooth, the adjustments are very delicate and do not require major forces. While this tripod head is expensive, you are buying quality.
