Review on Black Manfrotto MVH400AHUS Be Free Live Fluid Video Head - Lightweight & Travel Friendly by Vassil Filimonov ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The quality is ok on the whole, it has some small flaws.

It will do for a monopod. For a tripod - no way. For its price and the proud name of Manfrotto, you expect something more interesting. But in fact - you can find cheaper Chinese head, which will be exactly the same. Got pros: It is very light - this is exactly what was required of it, because it was bought for a light monopod. About the important: the platform is interchangeable with the heads of the 701st and 500th. The move of the head. Didn't like it. There is no resistance at all. For serious tasks - definitely not suitable. For a tripod - no, no, no. You are tormented. But for a monopod it's ok. It goes more or less normally along the horizon (surprisingly), but the vertical twitches, there is no smoothness at all. The move is uneven. The force is only regulated by a screw, as if there is no liquid there. Worried about the kind of krutilok-"lambs". But they were tenacious. Screw on and off easily. This is a plus. The handle is shorter than in the 500th head, and they cannot be swapped on them, in any way. There is no solution for the left hand either. Cons: Everything described above. The main one is a bad move vertically (up and down).
