Gitzo GH5750QR Series 5 Off-Center Magnesium Ballhead
Key Features
  • With Quick Release
  • Load Capacity: 30.9 lb
The Gitzo GH5750QR Series 5 Off-Center Magnesium Ballhead follows the same outer shell design and look of the GH3750QR, but is designed for heavier cameras and a more heavy-duty series of Gitzo support.

The GH5750QR features exceptionally smooth rotation, positive locking, and rapid camera mounting - all features common to the Gitzo designed range of ballheads. The graduated base with independent locking facilities, permits perfect panoramic photography. The design of the panoramic base permits the ballhead to be used for table top or near ground level work with or without the use of a tripod. This is an offset ballhead, which makes it possible to point more than 90° downwards.

High quality

Expensive but very well made.

Solid holder!

The ballhead is light, not too bulky and holds my heavy Nikon D3S in the firm, nicely adjustable and predictable way you'd expect of a pro-level head. I'm very satisfied with this product which I use for numerous photography tasks.

question

Will this head fit on the Gitzo GT2541EX Series 2 Explorer 6X Carbon Fiber Tripod? Not sure I understand the Series 2 & Series 5 designations.
Asked by: Rick
While this head could fit on a GT2541EX, it is really meant for the larger base diameters of the Gitzo Series 5 tripods to have the best possible fit.

question

Will this fit on a Gitzo Series 1 tripod?
Asked by: Dean
Technically it will attach but it might be way overkill for such a small tripod. Plus the base diameter of this head is 40mm so it will probably hang over the edge of the top plate of the tripod.

question

will this QR work with an arca swiss plate?
Asked by: Don
The only way to do it is to attach a large arca swiss plate to the the GItzo plate and then attach your existing arca swiss foot to that plate. I have a 4" third party plate and have it attached to a arca type foot plate attached to the existing foot of my Nikkor 200-500mm. Solid footing. You will need at least a series 5 tripod to really have it balance correctly if you intend to use long zooms.
