Great value

I am finally alble to make pictures of the entire family without someone holding the camera. I also plan to us it for shots while hiking.

Just ok

If you use a small camera with a kit lens, say a Canon XSI with a 18-55, this will works just fine, but if you use a larger semi- pro or pro body you need a Pro Ball head, don't waste your money. As a comparison I can not use a Canon 30D with a Sigma 17-50 f2.8 as it cant handle the front weight as you angle the camera for the shot

Hopeless

I use it with the D7000 and a 70-300mm and had all sort of trouble getting it level. Tried other brands are much better to control. Cannot find anything positive of this head, wasted my money.

Great Head

I bought this head with a new Giotto;s tripod. I liked it so much that I ordered a second on for a smaller tripod that I use in the house.
