The camera tripod is often the least important accessory for a lot of herbs photographers. The promise high ISO and image stabilization for many there are. Over time, however, we realize that it is a MANDATORY accessory for those seeking the highest quality of a photo. But a tripod, it is both feet ... and fixation. In this area, the ball serves as culmination. No more settings rods that hit everywhere. With a good ball head, you become master setting. This one is particularly robust (it supports my problem FX case with a more Zoom 1.5kg) in all configurations (vertical and 90 ° in particular). Previously, I had a 3D ball that was already very good, but this spherical "ball" is even better. Be aware, however, that this is a medium-range ball head. It is therefore not intended for equipment of more than 10kg, and does not have any "bubble" level. (Personally, I have this function in my case). Finally, I especially appreciate the fact that it is made in Italy, not in Asia. More, if you like, on my website photoexposition.fr
