Comments about Acratech Acratech Ultimate Ballhead with Quick Release & Left Sided Rubber Main, and Pan Knobs, Supports 25 lbs.:

I bought a cheaper head and had to throw it away. There is NO creep at all. Lock it down and your lens will stay where you want it to. I use it mainly with a Sigma 70-200 mm lens that is huge and heavy .... No proplem at all. Buy this one and you will not be looking back.

I love to get down and dirty with the creatures near the ground. The great flexability this ball head provides is wonderful. I can get the lens front in any angle needed for outstanding macro work. No wonder this product is called the ULTIMATE ball head. Acra-tech ; Thank You for this Product !!!

Comments about Acratech Acratech Ultimate Ballhead with Quick Release & Left Sided Rubber Main, and Pan Knobs, Supports 25 lbs.:

It's amazing just how much weight this head can support given its diminutive size. It can easily handle a 300mm f2.8 on a Pro body, even tilted at 45 degrees! Exceptional construction, with easy access to all areas for cleaning. It's a brilliant design, and one of the most versatile items I've come across in 38 years behind the camera. Couldn't recommend it highly enough.
