Large on features but compact for traveling

This is a great small head to mount a smart phone, point and shoot or small mirror less camera. Use it for family photos, botanical photos anything. The RC2 plate is secure and if you have another Manfrotto tripod it will likely interchange.

Fits my needs

This head is exactly what I expected it would be! I would recommend this to anyone who needs to double check their level.

I couldn't beat it

Was on a budget and needed a new head for my tripod. This fit the bill, for the price, I couldn't beat it.

It’s nice

It’s a little stiff but I’m sure with use it’ll lighten up

Awesome !

It’s the exact head that I needed. I ordered the head on Monday and needed it by Friday and they said they couldn’t guarantee it. It ended up arriving Thursday morning and I was delighted. Thanks for making the transaction go simple and easy. I appreciate the friendly demeanor of the staff.

Heavy duty head really does the job

Not light. Not cheap. But heavy duty and perfect for my giant Canon d5 camera with a big lens. I use it on my big clunky Manfrotto tripod, too.

Looks good , poor design

Retractable adjustment arms seem like a good idea but the one for horizontal is so short that with a Nikon 7200 mounted you can only use fingertips to adjust it. There is a spot where you think adjustment is perfect( horizontal) but when tightened it loosens and slips so readjustment is needed,sometimes several times. I have a similar one I've been using for over 30 years without the retractable arms. It works perfectly still but I had hoped to save some weight. Change is not always for the better.

Great pan/tilt head for Landscape shots

I had an old 3030 model Bogen head that I love with the exception that handles wouldn't fold up enough to get it in tripod bag. The MH-804 solves the problem with its retractable handle feature. The head is rock solid and supports the weight of a 5DMKII & a 100-400 telescopic lens with no shake at all. I'm very happen with the head and only wish I had upgraded sooner. And, Adorama is the best place to buy with their superior services and competive prices.
