ALMOST good product. Will NOT work properly with Neewer's own Tripod Leveling Base!

. which Neewer also sells. (You can do without a leveling base IF you don't mind your tripod using the more cumbersome method of adjusting each tripod leg each time.) that the horizontal locking wing nut on the base of this tripod gimbal head is FULLY connected to the tabs on the tripod leveling base. YOUR OWN PRODUCT! In addition, you cannot remove the locking wing nut to replace it with another handle. Now. I understand that NEEWER did not design or manufacture these products. This is a company that simply finds relatively good and inexpensive products from other companies and gives them the Neewer brand. This shows that they DON'T THINK when creating "their" product line. SOLUTION: I figured the best way to deal with this would be to take a dremel tool and cut off the wing nut. The result is a little less real estate to buy with your fingers, but it works.
