Cons
  • Expensive

1x 3/8 to 1/4 inch conversion screw

1x 3/8 x 1/4 inch conversion screw Missing on first purchase. replaced. It wasn't included in the replacement either. Do not buy this item, it does not come with 1 screw to convert from 3/8" to 1/4". !

Pros
  • IMPROVED PRACTICAL DESIGN: Compared with the traditional hydraulic resistance pan head, it can perform vertical side shooting up to a maximum angle of 90 degrees. Constructed of aluminum alloy for lasting performance, strong and durable to perform cinematic moves with compact camcorders and DSLR camcorders. Weighs only 860 grams but can weigh up to 5 kilograms
Cons
  • Can't remember but something was

Neewer Upgraded Heavy Duty Tripod – 3/8 Thread Concern

I ordered this based on other reviews and wanted it to work both horizontally and vertically. I wanted to try two different tripods and when I removed the head from the first tripod I noticed some metal shavings so I checked the threads on the tripod and the Neewer head. The threads inside the head looked a bit rough so I'm a little worried about how it will hold up. The rest of the head seems well built and fairly solid otherwise I would have left 5 stars. I've checked some of my other heads…

Pros
  • QR UNIVERSAL PLATE: Provides quick and easy transfer between camera and tripod. The locking handle makes the QR plate more stable and prevents it from being lost and slipping. Comes with a 1/4" to 3/8" adapter for wider use; Offers 50mm of sliding range to move
Cons
  • unreliable
