Pros: Weight,built quality,fast,ease of use, stable, easy hook the camera.
Cons: None
Opinion: Highly recommended. I used it on my Canon 5D IV and & 7D. I would say that my camera is safe due its stability and the price is very affordable. I have 2 other brand a carbon fibre but it doesn't last Due poor built quality. This Manfrotto that I bough from Lazada that impress me very much this become my all around tripod. However, compared to carbon fibre is much heavier due to aluminium but still love this product.
The following opinions have been automatically translated with Google Translate.
Opinion: I often use a be free advanced manfrotto with this built-in head, which to say is well made light and durable, but one thing that just doesn't go down being a landscaper is the pre-prunet attack. LIMITAR ARDICED for all swiss ark plate. If you want to replace the clamp you go to a Dante's hell, to look for the male-female adapter between 2.
Cons:I can't find user frelndly the clutch integrated into the knob that handles the sphere
Opinion:Purchased as a replacement for a Rollei ballhead with which I was not in tune, I mounted it on a tripod on which I mount medium-weight equipment. I am satisfied with the work that it does and for which I bought it, it does not make me crazy the clutch of the knob that manages the sphere, integrated with the knob itself. I would have preferred them to be two detached systems: each time I have to act on both because rotating the knob moves the clutch.

Pros:Lightness and quality of materials, shaping for use with the Befree tripod
Cons:The knob that regulates the clutch is not very progressive
Opinion:Purchased in kit with the Befree Advanced tripod. It holds without hesitation the 5d4 with heavy "black" lenses (35 f/1.4 II L, 16-35 f/4, etc.), but I had no way to test it with the 100-400. For me it is the first ball head but I do not regret the head three axes that I used earlier with the 190x, nor I find too castrating the absence of the bubble (I just need the electronic level of the machine). I found it very useful to regulate the clutch of the ball with the coaxial command to the clamping knob, because it seems to me not very progressive: it takes very little to move from an insufficient clutch to the block of the head.
Opinion:Purchased and until now used in kits with the Manfrotto befree Advanced. Very practical both for its shaping that allows the closure of the legs of the tripod and for the Lightness. The arrangement of the knobs is perfect because they are at the right point and very intuitive to find and "manage". I have a single problem (of which I was still aware at the time of Purchase) very serious in some situations: the absence of the Bubble.
Pros:Lightness, comfort grips, clutch control integrated in the grip knob (plus compared to the old 494), clamp for the Manfrotto coupling, shaped clamp for use with the advanced beefree
Cons:Clamp for those (like me) do not use the owner Manfrotto attack. It is not true that it is 100% compatible (it does not go to plate peak design).
Opinion:I was able to appreciate the head supplied with the new Manfrotto Beefree Advanced tripod. A jewel, including the shaped clamp to accommodate the two legs and allow it to be closed at the head. Unfortunately I use the native ark standard and I made a change. rnhttps: //www.juzaphoto.com/topic2.php? l = en & t = 2569453 & show = 3rnMa for those who marry the Manfrotto system in all respects, it's a little gem.
