The Strength of Steel. The Mass of Aluminum. The Precision of 3POD.The B2 aluminum ballhead from 3POD's AB Series employs an advanced damping system for silky smooth movement. The 32mm ball floats in a superhard aluminum shell and is a prime choice for heavy-duty photography projects with a supported payload of up to 17.6 pounds. The smooth movement of the ball itself is controlled with two adjustment knobs, and the panning base features 360 Degree of action with a prominent positioning dial, perfect for techniques like panoramic splicing where exactness is a must.The B2 AB Series can be fastened to a tripod head platform, a reverse center column for various projects, super-clamps and mobile supports or can be used alone as a stable tabletop mount for close-range photography.Locks, locks, and knobs nobs.The included ballhead from 3POD includes an Arca Swiss sliding quick release plate featuring a universal 1/4" mounting screw suitable for cameras of all sizes. The QR plate locks independently to the body of the ballhead for a secure, protective mount. All of the comfort of a tripod head without the overhead to cramp your style or travel ease. Get on the Ball! The ease and immediacy of a BALL HEAD for a tripod. This is the simplest method of camera support on a tripod to position the imagemaking device at the photographer's command choice. Traditionally, tripods are graced with a head that serves to attach a camera and provide alignment for as many as 3 planes: Horizontal axis, Vertical axis, and Zenith/Arc leveling. While sophisticated clamps and levers provided excellent stability with their firm locking power, the 3-way tripod head could grow quite wieldy and heavy to hold a camera firmly.The simple Ball Head overcomes most of the weight and all of the size issues, not the speed of deployment. One lever controls the tilt, orientation, and direction of the camera. The more well-endowed the head, the more separated the action controls provide 180-degree tilt and base camera rotation plus the second knob to independently control 360-degree panoramic swing. Shoot stills or confidence that your device is firm and steady in the 3Pod AB2 Ball Head.On The Ball Support!

The QR plate was easy to slide off the base mount with a little effort. Also it would not grab other brand arca swiss rails from my smallrig and JJC cages at all. Slid right off zero friction. Have a feeling these are way out of spec. I'd avoid them. I bought two at once and they were both the same.

No Grip on QR plates.

Very happy thank you

Excellent ballhead which I use for my Vortex 27-60x 85 spotting scope to see long range hits

Ball head for long range scoping

Really nice ball head with Arca mount. Smooth, light, and almost infinitely adjustable. Works really well on my light-weight tripod and on my monopod allowing me to shoot in either portrait or landscape without removing the camera from the monopod. Fit and finish is excellent and it works will all my Arca-Swiss adapters. Great buy at $50 to upgrade a basic tripod and make all mounts uniform.

Great Basic Ball Head

Nice smooth ball head with a cool quick release system.
