The Arca-type compatible ball head has a tungsten disulfide coating to help keep the ball movement smooth while it minimizes sticking and slipping, and it features a lever release lock that tightens down on the included quick release plate. A bubble level helps maintain straight horizons when shooting, and a friction control dial is integrated into the large locking knob to allow for precise camera and lens weight counterbalance.
