Leofoto HB-70 Reviews

Good Value for Heavier Cameras

By Ben
Rated 4 out of 5

I am using this with Deardorff 8x10. It handles the weight easily and feels secure. I recommend getting a tripod and head that hold 2 to 3 times the weight of your view camera. There is no built in stabilization so heavier duty solid construction makes the difference.
