question
I see the body is plastic to reduce weight. However, are the gears made of metal? I'm just afraid that if the gears are also plastic that they will wear quickly and lose precision.
Just don't put anything super heavy on it. It should be fine with a camera and lens, even a heaver lens. If you start putting flash heads and flash brackets on it, it won't last.

New to photography & torn between this head & MAMHXPRO3W to use it for product/flat lay photos. Which one shall I get?
Thank you but if my camera is rather light then the geared head would not be a bad choice after all? Iâm not planning to own any heavy camera since photography will only be my hobby, not a source of income

Could this be used with the befree tripods? Or is this head's base diameter oversized for those?
The Manfrotto XPRO 3-Way, Geared Pan-and-Tilt Head with 200PL-14 Quick Release Plate can be used with a Befree tripod. The base diameter of the head is 60mm, while the base diameter of the Manfrotto Befree GT PRO Carbon Fiber Travel Tripod is 44mm. So the head will overhang slightly on the tripod, but it will still work. The BeFree tripod has a function where the legs turn backwards towards the head in order to become very small, so you can easily carry it in a bag. If you use this XPRO 3-Way head you won't be able to place the legs right by the head, to be a very small package. Since you will probably not invert the legs around the head, when using the XPRO 3 way head, then the tripod will be slightly larger when carrying it in a bag, but it will still be a good option.

question
I've seen some reviews on this head from some unhappy customers. How is the play and gears on this head? I typically shoot with a pan/tilt or ball head but lately I've been shooting much more product and design/architectural assignments. I like the reviews on the 410 Jr but I want to stick with the RC2/PL220 releases.
Thanks all! I did purchase this head. It just arrived but initially I am pleased with the build quality and precise adjustments. Thanks again for the input!

question
How do I get the head off my tripod or tripod extension? I cannot figure this stupid question. What the heck am I doing wrong?
Look UNDERNEATH the tripod center column mounting plate and youâll typically see 2 or 3 small inset steel set screws.
Use a medium-small flat head screwdriver to loosen these FIRST.
You typically donât need to remove them entirely, but you need to loosen them until they are nearly out of the plate in order to unlock the head from the column.
Once these set screws are loose, you can easily screw off the original head by hand.
Reverse the process to mount and lock a new head to the center column.
