Compact, yet strong enough to support heavier camera loads than its predecessor, the 3413 ProBall Head, the new 486 is a great choice for 35mm SLR cameras with medium lenses, and light medium format cameras.
A strong die-cast construction, precision machined aluminum housing, and an extremely hard phenolic resin ball provides smooth movements across all tilt positions.
The 486 features a single ratchet locking knob for 360° pan and a double groove for +90°-90° tilt movements. Camera attachment is via a 2" platform with a 1/4-20" male thread, and head to tripod attachment is 3/8" female.
