I'm not a big fan of ball heads since the camera if used carelessly then solve it out front can tip over or they are constantly adjusted in the axis until you have the correct position. For product photography for me too much hassle. A 3-way pan head is me because dear, but my previous model from another brand was too wobbly and imprecise. Depending on the lens - - also noticeable equal to a whole lot had been made the image positioned and tightened the screws, the head around a few millimeters, which in the image shifted. I was advised to Getriebeneiger - and since this one had good reviews and price also is acceptable, I resorted to. Well, and what to say ... I'm excited!
The adjustment of the three axes is carried out with absolute precision. At the point at which you let go, he remains standing. Without shifting without play. The whole head more very massive and professionally, as one is precisely expect from Manfrotto. Together with a correspondingly good tripod - here I have one of Manfrotto - is the camera absolutely massive and wobble-free. Architecture and Macro highly recommended - and of course also for any kind of product photography.
