Must have for my tripod

By David
Rated 5 out of 5

Got a new tripod for film photography and this grip is a great add. Easily lets me set the camera where I need it and make quick moves as needed without the hastle of using 3 dials on the tripod. Absolutely worth it.

Where have you been…

This is great, smooth and sturdy. Time will tell about longevity of the ball, but it’s so much easier to pull the trigger rather than tighten/un tighten over and over…looks kind of weird on manfrotto pod but who cares
