Opinion:Head beyond expectations; It mounts above the 1Dx with 70-200 f / 2.8 IS2 and does not give off any slightest vibration Moreover provides the horizontal movement on the board to make panoramas from multiple scattiFrizione adjustable facilmentePer me is the best head in his range ... robust materials and modern. I recommend the version with quick release.
Pros:Light, thanks to the relationship between the sphere of large diameter and the diameter of the support of the fixing plate lens, allows inclinations much higher than those allowed by a smaller head and this makes it much more versatile and usable also in the macro where the composition is often more problematic than in more conventional photography.
Cons:No One
Opinion:In my humble opinion, is a great head; I use it for Macro and its ability to tilt sideways the lens / SLR at any point without having to forcibly turn your head to the "resume point vertical" (the slot that allows you to rotate the camera from horizontal to vertical), is very appreciable. In addition, the large diameter ball ensures secure fixing even with tele sets and heavy SLR. rnMolto recommended
Cons:I personally prefer the more compact heads, not using it for large paintings
Opinion:The new Manfrotto 054 heads are made of magnesium to reduce weight: the 054 QR2 weighs just 0.61 kg but has a capacity of 10 pounds. E 'available with various quick release plates; my favorite is the QR2 (Plate 200PL-14) because it has fairly small and does not protrude from the bottom of reflex. The value for money is excellent, 150 Euros are a very low price for a head of this level; is very robust and has good precision. The only 'fault' of this head is that it is too large for use strictly landscape (in this context, I prefer the small 494 or 496); instead it is a great choice for those who want to use with telephoto lenses.
