SmallRig BUT2665 Reviews

Good little ballhead

By Burnnie
Rated 4 out of 5

I own three of these now, for different uses stored in different parts of my camera gear. One lives in my astronomy bag to go with my star tracker, one stays with my tabletop tripod, and now my third one is going to stay with my window mount. These are far from perfect. In all three, there’s a slight hitch in the pano function. And if I’m using a heavier rig the lever lock isn’t beefy enough to allow precision adjustment. But if you need something that you don’t necessarily mind getting dunked into the ocean or left out in changing weather, these will do the job.
