For the experts out there, would you consider this a good ballhead? Looking to get an a good budget friendly ballhead that I can use for landscapes, etc.

Mr. Bill,
Did you buy it? If so, how do you like it?


Replacing my Canon 7D, Tokina 12-24mm, Canon 17-55mm, Sigma 30mm f/1.4, 85mm f/1.4, and 150-500mm with a Panasonic Lumix FZ1000. I still have the 17-55 and the 30 available for sale.

I bought this recently and just used it last night. There's no better head for the price. It's heavy duty and very precise.
