Product Features in Detail
Innovative Technical Solutions and Design
The new XPRO Ball Head is the perfect union between innovative technical solutions and design.
Triple Locking System
XPRO Ball Head features a new triple locking system which guarantees camera position stability, avoiding drifting thanks to three wedges which enclose and block the sphere. Its friction control helps the user balance the weight of camera equipment and, thanks to the two leveling bubbles, fine adjustments can be made with the locking knobs open.
Polymer Rings
Moreover, its new polymer rings have substituted that unpleasant, messy grease, ensuring smooth, accurate and less jerky camera movement.
Portable, Lightweight and Reliable
XPRO Ball Head is extremely portable, lightweight and reliable thanks to its magnesium body: it weighs only 0.52 kg and can support up to 10 kg of payload.
Top Lock
The new MHXPRO-BHQ6 comes with Top Lock, the MSQ6PL (Arca-Swiss compatible) plate, which represents an innovative solution compared to other Arca-Swiss style adaptors on the market. The camera is inserted from above, rather than from the side, which is faster and easier. When the plate engages with the clamp, it releases a safety mechanism that prevents camera falls. It is the perfect solution for experienced professionals wanting to feel totally secure, even when using expensive and heavy high-end camera gear.
