Great Ball Head
I love this ball head. It handles my 100-400 lens with no creep.

American made ballhead
This ballhead is expertly machined and built in Indiana. It provides rock solid support for my Fuji X-T3 and 100 to 400mm telephoto zoom lens.

This is my second ball head and if I would of bought this one first I would of not needed another one.
This is a great ball head. Locks in place and doesn't move. This is one I would definitely recommend.

Kirk BH-3 Ball Head works fine
I have this mounted on a Manfrotto 190CXPro4 carbon fiber tripod. It is suitable for mounting my Nikon 80-400mm zoom with tripod collar. I have a second one attached to a Pro Master MP528C carbon monopod. They suit me well for my purpose of shooting scenics and wildlife. But for big glass you need a BH-1 or a gimbal.

replacment ballhead
Well built, very happy with the purchase. Replaces a Manfrotto ball head that failed. Arca Swiss clamp is a much better design

Great Ballhead
The ballhead is lightweight but strong enough for a heavy telephoto. Glad I switched to it.

This is my first ballhead. As my first ballhead and I have nothing else to compare it with
I always prefer if possible to purchase products made in USA.
This is my first ballhead. As my first ballhead and I have nothing else to compare it with. Kirk said that the Bullhead has smooth operation.. My BH-3 doesn't seem that way. The only way I can get a smooth operation out of it is sprayed with WD-40. It comes with a five year warranty. If it gets better I will call Kirk support.

Awesome head with reliable quick release
Actually, this is my 3rd BH-3 - I use a lot of gear especially for night photography and time lapse. Kirk has quick-release plates for many popular SLRs and big lenses too, and they virtually never come loose. They also have L-brackets for switching to vertical once you have the horizontal locked down. The third head I'm using in conjunction with a Skytracker device.

Very solid
I wasn't sure I wanted to spend this much on a ball head. But some people had problems with the knock-offs slipping after setting their camera in position. This one locks solid with my 60D. I haven't tried my 70-200 yet. But I'm sure it will hold fine. I haven't noticed any slipping. The knobs are well made and function perfectly.
Worth the price. Plus, it's made in USA.

Excellent machined precision
I've used mine for 4 years and like the way it performed I bought one as a gift for my son. It matches well on my Induro carbon fiber tripod. It adjusts to any vertical or horizontal camera angle with smooth movements.

Was a high quality Ball head
This ball head is the best head I have ever owned. It is rock solid and when I attach my camera to it and set it,I get no flop at all and never have to reposition it because of slop in the ball head. I use this for studio and landscape photographyand I would recommend the Kirk BH-3 Ball head to anyone. I did not find any negatives things to say about it.
