I've been using this tilt head on the walimex pro FW-806 Lamp Tripod AIR, 280cm. The Panhead is made entirely of metal and makes a very high-quality impression. You can twist and bend in all directions it easily. The screw terminals are easily and clamp securely. We can clamp light screens and these tend also. For this purpose it is necessary to ensure the correct installation of the Panhead on the tripod. The side with the umbrella holder must face upwards. Supplied with two threaded pins made of brass are included with various internal and external threads. I have a soft box and a compact flash mounted on the head attached. The Panhead considers this combination in any position safely without slipping. Conclusion: High-quality and flexible tilt head. Have bought a second for another tripod.
