Manfrotto 560BALLSH Reviews

Worked Perfectly!

Took my medium/heavy tripod and converted to a flat top for a gimbal mount (see separate review). Measured the bowl, and found the Manfrotto that matched.

See any errors on this page?

question

Are there any 60mm bowl tripod legs that don't require a 75 to 60mm adapter? I found the Leofoto LN-324C but B&H does not carry that.
Asked by: John
The size of 60mm is not very common. The Manfrotto MVT502AM works with a 60mm Ball Base Head though. You could use this tripod with the 60mm Short Half Ball. https://bhpho.to/2jODzMY
