Vortex TRH-LVL2 Reviews

Sometimes you got to think outside the box

I got this to combo with my platypod for ground-level wildlife photo. Not the range of a ball head, though for that application a 30 degree arc is all you need. The head is low profile, smooth and easily adjustable. Perfect for what I want to do. As a leveling head on a tripod I don't know. Don't use it that way.

Just what I needed

I use this when glassing off a tripod, perfect to achieve level.
