I would use this with RRS BH-55 and Wimberly gimbal head. Should I get the large or regular size leveling base?

Asked by: George

The Really Right Stuff BH-55 Ball Head with Full-Size Lever-Release Clamp would work great with the Acratech Large Leveling Base.

question

Still trying to get my hands around. Would this make sense for ball head tripod heads at all? Or is it mostly for pan and tilt heads?

Asked by: Albert

Also, if you shoot panoramas, this will help in getting the ballhead base level so your stitching is smooth. I own it, but seldom use it with the ballhead, just with my video fluid head. BTW, this is made well and works great.

question

My camera has a virtual horizon built in. Do I need this product?

Asked by: George M.

Hi George, The Leveling base is used to level the bottom/base of the head. If you use the virtual horizon feature in your camera it will be fine for single images, but if you want to do a stitch panoramic you will have to level the base and the top of the head. It all depends on what you want to do. If your tripod has a level on the base you can level the base by adjusting the legs. Our leveling base is designed to make it easier for photographers to level the base. I hope this helps.
