Product details

For all amateur and advanced photographers looking for a small yet powerful ball head. The lightweight and compact 494 ball head is ideal for anyone seeking a quick and easy solution to align their camera. This tripod head is made from sturdy, lightweight aluminum and has a load capacity of up to 8 kg. It is the perfect solution for all types of mirrorless cameras with zoom lenses and even medium format DSLRs. The ball head combines user-friendliness with functionality and features three independent controls: a main knob for controlling the ball lock, an independent friction control, and a knob for the panoramic lock, which allows the camera to move horizontally for stunning landscape shots. The 494 ball head has a round mounting plate with a universal 1/4 inch attachment. The mounting surface is rubberized, providing maximum grip to ensure your camera stays securely in place and does not slip during use. The 494 ball head with mounting plate is perfect for sports photography and studio photography.
