Quality


I am happy with the vanguard tbh250


I am much happier with the levels


The tbh250 has a similar friction knob but theres no way to set a minimum friction if you bump or move the knob by mistake with...  Read More


Im surprised that a tripod head of this quality doesnt include a butterfly nut to hand tighten the plate to the camera

Price


All ok no problem get it in time price ok work very good


Sure there is but for the price i would buy this over many other heads in this price

Packaging/appearance


Straight forward and easy to use right out of the box


Until i got the tbh250 i was able to leave the manfrotto plate attached to the camera and hop from rig to rig

Competitiveness


I have had a manfrotto ball head for some time but never been particularly happy with it


Im an amateur videographer and i got this to supplement a manfrotto motion head for when im focusing on nonmoving shots or stilllong shots


110th of the material yet more than 14th of the price of the head


Its fine with a sony nex6 but not the nikon d600

    Word of caution if you require another mounting quick shoe they cost 25


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The two cameras i tried with the thb250 are both mediumsized and not terribly heavy so im not sure how it will perform with largerheavier cams or cams with huge lenses attached but it is worth noting that i was able to mount a camera with an extended attachmentmounting bracket holding a shotgun microphone and a video light with barn doors and the head didnt budge or give any play

    The only thing im not crazy about is the camera mount


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Its advertized as a quick shoe mount but its not that quick and if youre not careful its not that secure


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    While it isnt a quickrelease design it is a safe design meaning an expensive rig isnt going to hit the concrete because a quick release plate didnt fully engage


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    One great feature on the markins q10 is the ability to set a minimum ball friction so that there is always some resistance to the camera just flopping over when the main lock is released


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    In fact with the markins if adjusted correctly you can use the ball head without having to tighten down the locking knob the resistance allows you to move the camera if needed but keep the camera in place otherwise
