Comments about Bogen Imaging Bogen - Manfrotto 3D Magnesium Head with Quick Release - Supports 6.60 lb (#3437):

I use this head with a Nikon D200 with the MB-D200 grip. It's a heavy camera, heavier than the suggested load rating on this head. Still, the head is rock solid. Personally I believe the weight rating of the head is greater six pounds.

The RC2 quick disconnect is a solid design with a safety catch. The knobs on the head are large enough to be easily adjusted, locked or just snugged for tension. The knobs are rubberized for easy loosening. The head compacts nicely for packing away the tripod.

I prefer a ball head for portraiture, but this head is the one I go to for almost anything else.

This pan head is far superior to any ball head I have used.
It is a set and forget tension adjust, makes for
smooth fore and aft transitioning. No creep after set tension.
No need to fully lock and unlock as are ball heads when need to reposition.
