This seemed the best head for my Gitzo 340, a tripod that seems almost geological in its steadiness. It is. Gitzo equipment has delighted me with its quality since the early '70s, and this is as heavy as I ever expect to need. It easily holds my 8x10" camera at angles with bellows extended, and over 1000mm lens shots with FF DSLRs are as steady as the camera mount. The tripod/head do NOT move. Then when asked, they move easily as a thought.

This seemed the best head for my Gitzo 340, a tripod that seems almost geological in its steadiness. It is. Gitzo equipment has delighted me with its quality since the early '70s, and this is as heavy as I ever expect to need. It easily holds my 8x10" camera at angles with bellows extended, and over 1000mm lens shots with FF DSLRs are as steady as the camera mount. The tripod/head do NOT move. Then when asked, they move easily as a thought.

An innovative teflon coating applied to the ball itself lets you make camera positioning adjustments more smoothly than ever before by eliminating all trace of jarring skipping, so you can frame the perfect photograph first time without wasting precious seconds micro corrections. Add ergonomic design and advanced precision engineering to guarantee performance locking, and your camera is not only quickly manoeuvred, but also rapidly securely blocked where you want it.

The top of the range G1377M professional ball head uses a ball with an advanced teflon coating to ensure that movements are as easy and smooth as you could wish to find, even with 17.6 lbs of photographic equipment on board. Adding a separate friction control on the ball movement to the independent pan and ball locks results in ultimate stability, comfort and responsiveness even when using long lenses and heavy cameras.

(For the photographer who prefers a quick release system, Gitzo now offers their top of the line G1377M head with a quick release top. The G1378M utilizes the proven design of the G1285 quick release assembly, with it's secondary safety latch and security pin. Additional plates are available in standard or long lengths, for any size camera or lens, in either 1/4-20" or 3/8" threaded versions.)
