| Product Description |
| Strong, sturdy, and easy to use, the Ball Head 800 was created to take on a range of equipment from digital and 35 mm up to 4x5 field cameras.Using the same quick release system as the PRO 700 DX tripod head, the Ball Head 800 has one of the fasted and easiest quick release plates in the industry. SLIK made a circular quick release plate that can secure the camera to the tripod pointing in any direction, making attaching your camera (once the SLIK quick release plate is attached) more intuitive than most other heads that have squared off or angled plates. For Medium or large format photographers there is a circular quick release with a 3/8 mount post available.Precision machining, polishing of all moving parts and an oversized, easy grip release knob for fine tension adjustments combine for smooth accurate operation. |

Does a good job!

This product is very simple to use and does a good job of supportng my
40D. The 100-400 lens, I believe is the maximum length workable. Attachment is quick and has been reliable. Good value for a good product. |

Would be a five with a few additions

| It can take the weight and operates smoothly. After a very short period of usage I got comfortable with the controls. I would have liked two improvements 1. it does not have a level bubble - solved by buying a bubble that attached to the flash shoe 2. the base is not calibrated which helps in panaromic photos. I have used it for macro and telephoto shots as well as general landscape shots and am very satisified |

| The picture does not do this product justice. This is a beefy head and is well made. |

Well designed and Quality built, The Slik Pro 800 Ball Head is a Keeper!

| The Slik Pro 800 Ball head is the perfect compliment to the Slik Pro 700DX Tripod. Its multiple adjusting knobs make this ball head easy to use and very versatile. Being able to support up to 15lbs, it is great for long telephoto lenses. It seems to be very well engineered and built to last. The quick release system has a safety button that keeps your equipment from falling, even if the release lever is accidentally unlatched. It comes with everything needed to mount on any tripod that accepts 3/8th or 1/4" mounting studs. |

Excellent!

| The Pro Ball 800 is bigger than I expected, but after using it, I would not swap it for anything. The quick release plate is round, so it can be inserted at any rotation of the camera. It uses a latch and a release button so there is no accidental releasing your camera. The knobs are solid and tight. The large one tightens the ball, the smaller adjusts tension, making fine adjustments easier. A third knob allow the head to spin without affecting the ball setting, great for panoramic shots. I use it on a Slik Dx 700 Tripod, and while it is heavier than you would want to use while being a tourist, it is a fantastic head. I love the freedom of adjustment I have from just a single knob. If you are a pro, you might want to jump to something much more expensive, but I don't know why! For an amateur with limited funds to throw down, this is an excellent head! I highly recommend it. Well made, solid feel. |
