The Leofoto LH-40 Ball Head (Black) is a mid-sized ball head that will support camera-lens combinations weighing up to 44 lbs. Crafted from aluminum and hard anodized, the LH-40 has all of the qualities you would expect from a professional-level head. An over-sized, ergonomic locking knob allows 45-degree tilting in all directions and a 90-degree drop-notch facilitates quick and accurate switching from the horizontal landscape position to vertical portrait orientation.
A separate tension knob is provided to apply the appropriate pressure that safely corresponds to the weight of your camera. A third knob loosens and locks the panning base which is laser-engraved with markers every 2.5 degrees from 0 to 360 degrees.
Ergonomic design gives superior handling and unsurpassed reliability. Lowest height profile in its class. Knobs are captive and uniquely shaped, making operation very intuitive 90-Degree drop-notched allows maximum flexibility for positioning the camera for portrait-orientation or extreme angle shots.
Micrometer drag tension adjustment is repeatable and absolutely reliable. Precision panning base is finely laser-engraved at 2.5 degree intervals. Laser-engraved millimeter scale offers precise centering and positioning within the clamp jaw. All components are machined from solid aircraft aluminum and hard anodized for maximum durability and minimum weight.
