Product Information

The 488 ball head features a strong die-cast aluminum housing plus an exceptionally hard, tough, phenolic resin ball that moves smoothly into position.

The 488 features a double-groove for rapid side-to-side movement, and a separate fast-action ratchet lever for 360° pan and easy to grip locking knob for +90°-90° tilt movements. Suitable for Medium format cameras, or any 35mm or Digital SLR camera system.

All ball heads fit any Bogen tripod, or any tripod with 3/8"-16 (Euro) thread.
