Just fine

Feels secure, super lightweight. Works with my Sony a6400 with a medium sized lens (Tamron 18-300) for a super lightweight setup. Wouldn't want to walk around with my camera mounted to it, but for landscapes is fine.

Cute and useful

I purchased this so I could mount a point and shoot camera on a small tripod but still be able to adjust the camera without having to reposition the tripod. The ball head has a solid build (metal), is very light, and works perfectly.
