I use this product on both a mono and a tripod. It's relatively small, easy to transport and operate. The ball clamp is very sensitive which makes it easy to adjust on the fly. I've also used this head in below zero temperatures for extended shoots with no issue. I'm thinking about buying another so I don't have to share between stands.

Very good ball head but could use a second clamp to control panoramic swing instead of one for all movements.

The new SBH-320 DQ is made from finely machined and carefully anodized hardened aluminum parts that are designed to give many years of trouble-free smooth operation. This SLIK ball head features an easy to use, single knob operation to lock or release the ball connected to the camera plate. The knob is oversized and has a well-textured surface for a sure grip in any conditions.
When the head is released, not only does the ball portion of the head move freely, the main body encasing the head can turn on its base for quick and easy movement as well. The base of the head has easy-to-read degree marking for panoramic photography.
The SBH-320 DQ has the exclusive SLIK feather-light magnesium alloy quick release system, which allows a quick release plate to remain on the camera at all times. A feature of the SLIK DQ quick release system is a large low-profile camera plate that will not interfere when mounted on vertical grips. The plate also has an extra wide camera lock wheel to make mounting and removing the platea breeze.
Bubble levels mounted on dual axis allow make accurate leveling of the camera easy.
The SBH-320 is capable of handling a digital SLR or 35 mm film cameras with long lenses up to the weight of a 300mm f/2.8.
