Acratech Ultimate Ballhead with Quick Release, Detent Pin, Left Rubber Main, Pan Knobs | Supports 25 lbs. | Enhanced SEO Review

Light and inexpensive ball head. Of course, there are some movement restrictions, but it's not that annoying. Of course, you can buy the same weight from RRS, but it will cost you more money.

I photograph studio products (full time) and make a living and I feel stupid that I didn't buy one a few years ago. This simplifies the task of maneuvering the camera and then fixing it like concrete with a simple twist. I have had many premium ball heads. This easily dominates anything I've ever used. Incredible design. Worth more than I paid for it (yes, I'm serious).

Acratech i'm at ball head is a solid device and of the ball heads I've tried this is by far the best in terms of design, build quality, durability and most importantly Handling. Most tripod heads, like the Manfrotto heads, are made from die-cast metal, but this one is CNC-machined from aluminum, giving it more of an aerospace quality. I like the black matte finish and the location of the cocking knob.

I don't know why a good one costs so much (3 times more than my previous 2) but this will be my last ball head. Works easily and smoothly. There is a point deduction because the quick-release plate had to be purchased separately. There must be a reason, but I don't understand it. The buttons on the AUB work well, hold their position and the device itself is nice and light but works well. Easily maneuver between horizontal and vertical positions. I highly recommend this ball head.

This is as close to a perfect ball head as I can imagine. And I have a vivid imagination! The movements are smoother than silky and the lock is firmer than Fort Knox. The accuracy of this head is so good, you'll think your camera is floating, until you give a tiny twist of a knob and the universe falls into place. Is it expensive. Sorry but if you think about the time it takes to set up and trust that the cost is almost negligible. Enjoy life. Take this ball head.

I first saw one when I found a forgotten tripod in Death Valley. I was blown away by the ease of use and ease of use, as well as the lightness (especially on a carbon fiber tripod). I've been using it ever since and I love it. Very predictable and solid and moves easily through setup, firm but agile until the bezel appears, then a smooth twist and it's fully locked. I've had an Arca-Swiss B1 for years and it's a great ball head but it's a heavy pup. I can't get rid of it, but the Acra (not…

I'm a mechanical engineer and was blown away by this mount. It's so simple, so well designed, so fluid, it does everything well. I bought a Manfrotto tripod with a ball head. My first tripod with a ball head. It sucks pretty bad (ball head, no tripod). Why? Because everything is a ball, everything is kind of wobbly. What I like about it is the swivel function. Lock the camera, then rotate the knob and pan. Yes I have an old bow and it swings and takes three hands and I love it but this head is…
