Rated 4 out of 5

Nearly perfect Ball Head

Overall this is a very well built and smooth operating ball head. Ball head exhibits a hitch-free ball movement with a slightly stiff panning function. The conversion to the vertical ball function is a nice feature, easily accomplished and works well. Ball clamping is very secure and holds my EOS 70d with 55-250mm lens with ease. The only criticism, hence the 4-star rating, of this head is the fiddly clamp mechanism and its inability to mount non-Cullmann Arca-style plates.

About Cullmann Hybrid Ball Head

Equipped with the revolutionary hybrid technology, which allows for split-second switching from the ball head to a 2-way video head, the CONCEPT ONE OH4.5V is the perfect tripod head for use with modern digital cameras. With convenient switching from photo to video mode, the hybrid ball head CONCEPT ONE OH4.5V supports both shooting formats, providing the user the possibility to use it for both photo and video - following the motto: One-for-All!

For ambitious video shooting, the supplied video guide handle must be mounted into the designated handle receptacle of the QRC unit. No matter left or right handed, the video guide handle can be mounted in four different positions and adapted to the needs of the user.

All CONCEPT ONE Hybrid ball heads are made entirely of aluminum and protected against environmental influences and scratches by an abrasion-resistant powder coating. Another feature of CONCEPT ONE hybrid Ball heads is offset-free ball clamping - a so-called equatorial clamping. By clamping the ball around its circumference, the undesired adjustment of the viewfinder detail, which is common when clamping a ball head, is eliminated.

For safe and reliable operation, especially with heavy, high-speed lenses as well as for jerk-free video pans, the CONCEPT ONE OH4.5V hybrid ball head is equipped with an infinite friction adjustment of the ball.

The camera QRC system CONCEPT ONE OXC, which is completely made of aluminum and fully UniQ/C and Arca compatible, ensures quick and reliable fastening of the camera onto the hybrid ball head. The CONCEPT ONE OH4.5V model comes with a 3.5" (90mm) long QRC camera plate and is particularly suitable for medium to large DSLR and video cameras.

Owners of CONCEPT ONE Tripods can also mount the CONCEPT ONE OH4.5V directly onto the center column by using the 3/8 inch fastening screw. This prevents the accidental unscrewing of the tripod head and ensures greater safety when working. For mounting the hybrid ball head onto tripods of common manufacturers, the connecting screw can be turned back into the ball head housing and fastened by means of the 3/8 inch connection thread.

The hybrid ball head CONCEPT ONE OH4.5V is the perfect platform for digital cameras with photo and video functionality, especially for DSLR and CSC cameras.
