Review on πŸ“· Manfrotto 438 3/8 Ball Camera Leveler - Professional Grade Replacement, Black by Adam Hardy

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Nothing but good things to say about it

UPDATE: After using this leveling base 4 weddings, the latch used to tighten the base loosened. The screw came out and behind it the latch. I had to shoot the first hour of the wedding day with a latch separate from the base. Then I accidentally found a small screw in my suitcase. I have to use teflon tape to make sure the screw stays in place. That works great. I usually have a 24" slider and a Manfrotto MVH500AH head and a Canon 5D3 and lens. This leveling base always held steady, even when the camera was at the ends of the slide. I have no problem changing levels as the base is locked in place. Nothing but good things to say about it.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Protection

This product is a superb base for a gimbal tripod head. Easy to operate, but stays locked tightly
