Manfrotto 056 3-D Junior Head - Supports 6.6 lbs (3kg)

Bought this to use with a 5D Mk 2 and lens as big as 70-200. It is very solidly built. Doesnt seem to have any problem with the weight. Has three different levers which allow you great flexibility for various angles. Used it last night to photograph the sky without a problem. Id recommend it.

Excellent tripod head. Small, easy to use and secure. I went from this head to a ball head but I'm back using this head. The ball head couldn't hold the camera in a horizontal position (the head didn't move but couldn't tighten the camera enough to say still).

I love this. It saves my back, is very easy to use and makes my pictures turn out much better! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

This makes securing and moving the camera round on the tripod even for a side tilt a breeeze. My hands don't do as well with some of the other flat controls. I put it on a used other brand tripod with a level on it.

My first Manfrotto head. I am very pleased. When I purchased it I reall did not know the capabilities of the head other than it could hold 6.6 lbs. I found that my equipment weighs 4.3 lbs and the head has no problem at all hold that weight at all types of configuration.

The price was good also solid build, a bit fiddle to set up at first .Pity it did not have level built in,but still good for price.Just make sure it is fully tightened I used a level and a level template out of cardboard to set up.

  Compact, Durable

The folded head will fit very nicly in my gear bag.

The Junior camera head is sturdy, smooth and easy to use. I have used it outdoors and indoors and find it is great to flip from portrait to landscape, and any angle. The locks are tight though you may get some grease from joints on your hands.
