Summary: Very easy to use
Review: The first head I've owned (with my first tripod). I can't think of anything negative to say about it. It's simple to use, lock's tight and isn't overly heavy. Great buy!

Summary: Great flexibility for any shooting situation
Review: This ball head is a great item. It offers so much versatility with so much ease. When the grip is in the horizontal postion, it will allow you to pan unlike traditional quick release ball heads. You can adjust it from a right handed postion to either left handed postion or to a tradtional vertical positon like any other quick grip ball head. With one quick motion, I can go from horitonal shot to a vertical shot. The grip also has a tension knob built in so you can increase the tension when you have to use heavier lenses.
