Great ball head

I managed to drop my tripod, and that broke off the pan knob on my previous ball head. I bought it again because it's a good and sturdy ball head at a reasonable price. The new ball head seems to have improved on some of the minor annoyances the old one had. Compared to the old one, this also has the panning head. I have used this with my Wimberley Sidekick and it is sturdy enough for that kind of use as well.

Super duper ball

This is the perfect ball head for general and pano photography. I use it with my Sony mirrorless system with lenses up to 70-200. Steady as a rock on my Gitzo carbon fiber tripod.
