Review on 📷 PerGear TH3 Pro Tripod Ball Head for DSLR Cameras - Enhanced Loading Capacity of 8KG/17.6lbs, 360° Swivel, Durable Metal Build, Fine-Tuning Damping, U-Shaped Groove Design for Quick Vertical Mode Switching by Jason Ortiz

Before buying, I looked at a review on YouTube. There are two handles that tighten the ball. Upon checking, the guy didn't know why. There's a good reason for that. The smaller grip should be tight enough to allow the camera to move freely and still support the weight when released (once the desired stiffness is set, this knowledge rarely needs adjusting and it is camera dependent). weight with lens). The second big knot (the one with "Lock and Loose") is to lock the camera position once you've reached the position you want (if you're taking multiple shots of the same area or just don't want to). . move camera). Another thing is that on a detachable plate that is attached to the camera, you can adjust the camera fore and aft. This is to counteract the weight of the camera/lens. Once you've placed the camera plate on your head, tighten it just enough so it won't fall off but will still move. Now you can also move the camera back and forth. It also helps balance the weight of the camera/lens. I thought this might be helpful since the guy in the video I'm watching had no idea what those two things were for (he thought he did but didn't).
