Rated 5 out of 5

Solid as a rock

This head is solid as a rock. The knob to release the ball is very tight and takes a little muscle to move, but once locked the ball does not move. I've used a large DSLR and heavy telephoto lens (300mm f/2.8) with no issues. I got this to replace an ancient Gitzon head that was worn out.

Geat Head!

Was Looking for a larger ball head for my Gitzo Systematic. The 3Pod is well made and rock solid. Could not have made a better choice at this price point.

Very good ball head for the price

It has been found strong enough to hold my 150-600mm lens. Feel very well built.

Solid as a rock

By JOHN F.

This head is solid as a rock. The knob to release the ball is very tight and takes a little muscle to move, but once locked the ball does not move. I've used a large DSLR and heavy telephoto lens (300mm f/2.8) with no issues. I got this to replace an ancient Gitzon head that was worn out.

Geat Head!

By JAMES R.

Was Looking for a larger ball head for my Gitzo Systematic. The 3Pod is well made and rock solid. Could not have made a better choice at this price point.

The 3POD Everest Series H4 Ball Head sports the most rigid, CNC-forged, anodized aluminum, wear-resistant finish, perfect for photographers demanding the most from their tripod gear. An innovative flip-lock clamping quick-release plate lets you rapidly lock and release cameras with one hand. The H4 employs state-of-the-art ergonomic design and damping for flawlessly smooth movement, giving professional photographers and hobbyists jitter-free panning.

3PESH4

At the base of the head, a convenient inscribed 360º scale makes for easy, perfect positioning throughout the ball head's full range of panoramic movement. It has 2 bubble levels, 1 on the head perimeter, and a 180º circular bullseye next to the lock knob, assuring absolute precision along the horizontal axis, vertical axis, and zenith/ arc leveling. The dual drop-in channels support vertical portrait orientation without stress to the clamping mechanism. Assume any position and it can handle up to an incredible 66 lbs. securely and reliably for the shot.

3PESH4

QR Dual Lock Operation

One outstanding advancement of Everest ball heads is its ease of use. The magic starts with our flipping thumb-operated lever lock. Go through the motions to enjoy the moment. The attachment process is simple and secure. The most extraordinary QR Arca plate locking device for the ball head is the three-position thumb lever on the side of the platform.

3PESH4

As Arca QR plates vary slightly from brand to brand, our smart lock adjusts to grasp the width correctly and snugly at the user's whim. Any Arca-style plate will fit within the clamp jaws. Adjust the width of the rails of the lever lock clamp by tightening or loosening the screw mechanism on the lever lock.

Heads Up!

Ergonomics, ingenious leverage, precision drag, and friction deliver absolute reliability for the confident image maker. Once set decisively, the head holds a position at any angle. Even when the base is level with the horizon, the camera's tilt maintains a true smooth pan despite the skewed position. The panoramic 360˚ rotation is also controlled by a base locking knob. A convenient calibrated scale is engraved on the base perimeter for accurate, calculated execution.

3PESH4

The dual U-shaped channels house the neck of the head platform base that is attached to the ball. The two notches guarantee support and security for the off-center placement of the camera. Both vertical and portrait positions can be easily achieved.
