    I bought this head about 6 months ago and have been very pleased with it. Saved me several hundred dollars compared to the Arca Swiss D4. No regrets! Put it on a Benro Mach3 carbon fiber tripod and they make an excellent team!

      Hi can you advise what plate you can use on this head as am thinking of buying both very soon. Will be using Canon gear. Thanks

    can you do also precise horizontal adjustment with the knobs or only vertical ?

      No horizontal adjustments possible. You'll need something like the Arca Swiss Cube C1.

    What plate are you using? Have you tried to unscrew the plate mount to see if you could attach another? My thought would be to put a Really Right Stuff quick release clamp with a level

      I'm using a SmallRig L-Bracket 2122. Sunwayfoto provides a DDH-05 Panoramic Panning Clamp with the head, you can change it, but make sure that the anti twist mount on the back on the clamp is the same on both systems.

    Hello! Could you give another update another 9 months down the road? I'm wondering how it ages. My manfrotto 410 has some play these days and I'm thinking about replacing it. Thanks!

      Hi Joe, it still works pretty fine, the gears are a little less stiff. In the meantime i bought the GH-Pro 2 and will publish a comparative video soon.

    Hi, the two big knobs are made of plastic or metal ?

    • @m4tik
      @m4tik  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Everything is metal.

      @@m4tik Thank you. So this is the latest of the three version made ? Seems there is a little bit confusion about hardware upgrades through sellers in EU right now.

      Hi Vincent, i am still pretty happy with the head, it works well on daily basis and i have any issues so far. The precise and easy adjustement is very convenient ! I'm planning to buy another one for my travel tripod too.
