Lame product and terrible quality.

I am a professional interior photographer. I bought a manfrotto tripod with this head in the Bright photo market. I bought in a hurry without studying reviews, etc. for which he paid. The expression "expensive means high quality" in this case does not work. There are no objective reviews about this head, there are only rave reviews about how reliable it is. So, on the very first day of use, I felt all its worthlessness, this head is absolutely not suitable for photographers (it seems that it…

Pros
  • No
Cons
  • Service life 3 months; It is impossible to change the camera battery without removing it from the tripod; Unreliable fixation of the camera position with the help of handles; The counterbalance spring is useless, does not fulfill its functions.

Three-way head Manfrotto MH804-3W. Very durable head for time lapse.

I have several Manfrotto tripod heads. But this Manfrotto MH804-3W 3 Way is a very solid head that doesn't move down at all when you're shooting for a long time. Therefore it gets 5 stars. Now, this is not a flexible swivel head. So if you need a video head, this is not your choice. But I like this head for clear photos.

Pros
  • Quick Change
Cons
  • Guard

Manfrotto MH804-3WUS 3-way socket - I love this socket

Manfrotto MH804-3WUS 3-way socket - I really like this socket. I replaced the base ball head on my Manfrotto be-Free tripod and it fitted perfectly. I don't shoot videos so I have no idea of their requirements but this works fine for me and my full size Canon DSLR. I've used it for shooting stars and macro photography in the dirt and haven't had any problems so far. I will buy again, no complaints.

Pros
  • Robust construction
Cons
  • Without automatic

Perfect functionality but not long lasting

I absolutely love everything about this tripod head. The only drawback and the reason for my 3 star rating is the durability. The first are used. I absolutely love everything about this tripod head. The only drawback and the reason for my 3 star rating is the durability. Have been using the original design for two years with no problems. The second time I used a new one I dropped it (not much) and the end of the handle fell off, the spring came out and the ring was broken so I can't screw it…

Pros
  • A dream come true
Cons
  • Secret

It's great to be able to position the camera at almost any angle you want and know it won't move. It lost a star for 2 reasons

The head snaps in and holds a large telephoto DSLR very well. It's great to be able to position the camera at almost any angle you want and know it won't move. It lost the star for two reasons: First, it doesn't let me point 90* up, I think it stops at 60*. The second reason is that they come with two extra quick couplers. They don't have the Manfrotto markings and came off the record when I first got them. I have little faith in additional clips that protect the camera and lens for several…

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • I will add later
