Comments about Bogen Imaging Bogen - Manfrotto Compact Ball Head - Supports 13.2 lbs:

I rarely use a tripod. I only use one when I have to photograph a wedding ceremony from the back of a church with my 70-200 lens. Since I use one so infrequently, I didn't want to attach a quick release plate to my camera body - too clunky. So I bought this ballhead, which I can screw into my 70-200 the old fashioned way. What can I say? This ballhead does the job as advertised. It's inexpensive. It seems to be well built. I'll continue to use it. However, when you're used to the silky-smooth heads from Kirk or RRS, everything else seems - well. It's like driving a Ford Escort when you're used to driving a Ferrari.
