Novoflex MB Free 50 scores with robust construction, good workmanship, great freedom of movement and easy handling. It is a fast head, but not always the most precise, because you do everything freely by eye. Panning around the own axis is possible, but hardly as smooth as with a real panorama axis. The holding force is high, even if not bombproof. MB Free 50 is not cheap.

  • PositiveWorkmanship, handling and performance: all top. The system is very well thought-out and flexible.
  • NegativeThe ball is a little stiff in the bearing shell at the beginning, which may make smooth movements difficult.

Those who value maximum flexibility but at the same time depend on effective camera stabilisation should take a closer look at the Novoflex MagicBall Free 50.
