About Cardellini 494

What sets the Manfrotto 494 Mini Ball Head with MMC Mini Mic Mount Clamp apart is its perfect blend of durability, versatility, and compact design. This high-quality ball head is an essential tool for both amateur and professional photographers who demand fast, precise camera positioning. Crafted from highly-resistant, lightweight aluminum, this compact ball head is not only portable but also sturdy enough to support a payload of up to 9 kg.

Ideal for use with mirrorless cameras with zoom lenses, medium-format DSLRs, and other devices with a 1/4"-20 tripod mount thread size, the Manfrotto 494 Mini Ball Head offers a quick and easy solution for framing shots with precision. It features three independent controls: a main knob for managing the sphere lock, an integrated friction control knob for balancing equipment weight, and an independent panoramic knob for horizontal camera movement, making it perfect for capturing breathtaking landscape shots.

The Manfrotto 494 Mini Ball Head also comes with a universal round disc that ensures a solid grip and extreme solidity between the ball head and your camera, providing maximum safety during your entire photographic session. This feature makes it an excellent choice for sports and studio photography styles.

The MMC Mini Mic Mount Clamp, similar to model MC but slightly shorter, ends with a 3/8"-16 male thread. This design makes it incredibly easy to set up and reliable to use in any configuration, further enhancing the versatility of this ball head. With its quick-release feature and maximum load capacity of 8 lb, the Manfrotto 494 Mini Ball Head with MMC Mini Mic Mount Clamp is a reliable choice for attaching heavier cameras and equipment.
