Manfrotto 324 RC2 Joystick Light Duty Grip Ball Head. This is an alternative for those wanting to work faster it's a lot quicker to use thanks to the single-lock system. A derivation of the ball head idea the grip ball head, or joystick head as it's more commonly known. As the name suggests, there's a joystick-style handle to angle the camera rather than a lock release. I love this ball head its quick and easy to use one handed for quick adjustments without the need to fiddle with buttons knobs and levers, if simple and ease is what your after this is definatly one to buy it comes in heavier duty versions as well although ive had mine with a D7000 + Nikkor 70-200 2.8 vrII without ptoblems.
Buy From AMAZON US go.qweas.com Customer Reviews: "I really like the speed on this head. Just a squeeze of the handle for rapid repositioning. Very study. Holds its postion exactly where you want and can accomadate my 400mm with ease. The tension gear adjusts as advertised and is in a good location, easy access. This is much lighter than my other Manfrotto head, but on my Manfrotto 055WNB tripod, there is enough weight for rock solid performance. But there is a drawback. It dosen't have smooth, fluid panning capibilities. That is the reason for only 4 stars, otherwise a well built, solid, lightweight head." "I love this product.
