Review on πŸ’‘ SLIK SBH-120 DQ Compact Ballhead with Quick Release, 4.5 lbs. Capacity, Black (618-325) by Amanda Rochon

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Disappointed that the camera is not held in a vertical position

I have been using the SLIK tripod for 35 years and have never had a problem with it. Unfortunately, someone recently knocked it over and broke their head. I wanted a 3-way head again, but the new heads have two handles (I only had one) so I bought this compact SLIK SBH-120 DQ ball head. It works well with my Nikon D90 in landscape mode. However, when I rotate the camera to take vertical shots, the camera slides off the cork pad and rotates downward. I'm very disappointed and will now have to buy a matching triangular head.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • There are more interesting options.
