My new go-to ball head!

This will undoubtedly be my go-to ball head. The pan and ball movements are incredibly smooth. Absolutely zero ball head droop, even with a heavy body/lens combination. The large main and pan lock knobs are a delight to use and will be easy to operate with gloves on. I much prefer the wide grooves on these vs. the knurled or fine grooves on other heads I've used. The ability to reposition the panning knob is a great feature. This is yet another well designed and executed bit of gear from PMG!

Become a master of precision and stability with the BH50 50mm Professional Ball Head with C40 Clamp, meticulously designed for both Mirrorless and DSLR cameras. This product is a testament to years of research and high-quality American manufacturing, ensuring a rock-solid grip on your camera with effortless ease.

The BH50 Ball Head is equipped with an Arca-Type standard mount, featuring an extra-wide clamp opening for ultimate compatibility with a variety of camera models. Crafted from solid Aluminum T6061 blocks and stainless steel, this ball head is not only durable and sturdy but also promises long-lasting performance.

The large 50mm ball head is complemented by a big round dial, allowing you to adjust the tension quickly and accurately, even while wearing gloves. This high-quality product from ProMediaGear ensures smooth operation, letting you dial in the perfect amount of tension via the tension-dial. This feature enables you to nudge your camera into the correct position without having to re-tension, making your photography experience more enjoyable and efficient.

The BH50 Ball Head is compatible with Arca-Type plates and mounts to a tripod via a standard 3/8 16" thread. The large mechanical friction knob on the ball head allows for side-to-side swinging, ensuring any position can be achieved with ease.

The product comes with either a #C40 or #C60 Clamp that can freely move around or fall into the 90 Degree Drop Slots. The Pan Lock Knob allows for a full 360-degree rotation of your camera, offering you complete creative freedom. Despite its robust features, the BH50 Ball Head weighs only 1.54 pounds, making it highly portable and perfect for on-the-go photography. Experience one of the smoothest, lightest, and most versatile ball heads on the market today with the BH50 50mm Professional Ball Head with C40 Clamp.
