Manfrotto 496RC2 Compact Ball Head with adjustable friction Aluminium quick release plate + Black (Electronics)

Customer Review

Purchased to equip a Manfrotto carbon foot 055CXPRO4 and withstand EOS 6D + 2.8 II 24-70.

Quick release plate system extremely practical:
- Tray attachment on the device without tools (integrated wing)
- Automatic engagement of the tray as soon as we put the camera on the ball
- Safety button for withdrawal, to prevent accidents

Excellent ergonomics. Progressive friction more than correct. Easily takes the load of the quoted material whatever the desired position.

I hesitated with Sirui-K20X or Manfrotto 468MG ...
In terms of quality / weight / price it is for me the best solution! Very happy with this product.
