The 496 Aluminium Ball Head allows for fast and precise camera positioning for ambitious photographers looking for a small but powerful ball head. This tripod head is made of very durable, lightweight aluminum and therefore extremely resilient and strong enough to handle a payload of up to 10 kg. It is the perfect solution for all kinds of mirrorless system cameras with zoom lenses and even mid-sized DSLRs. Combining ease of use with high functionality, this sophisticated ball head features three independent controls: a main knob to control the ball lock, an integrated friction control, and an independent panorama lock that moves the camera horizontally to allow amazing landscape shots. With the 496, you'll find the right framing quickly and easily. It opens up limitless possibilities so you can aim for any angle imaginable.
