Really Right StuffBH-55 Ball Head with Full-Size Lever-Release Clamp

Precision made, precision adjustments. Wonderfully stable. Will last a lifetime. High resale value. If you are on a very important photo shoot and do not want to deal with issues of shake and movement, you get this ball-head. You have a heavy lens. You get this ball head. Of course you need an equally good tripod. I have been teaching photography for 20 years at the colleges. I do not make this recommendation lightly.

RRS equipment is expensive. But it’s worth every single penny. I’ve been hesitant to buy this ball head, but I’ve been using my old ball head more frequently and decided I needed to upgrade. I’m not disappointed in any way.This head is extremely tough and smooth in movement. It easily holds my DSLR (Canon 1DX Mii) with medium sized lens. Its stability is incredible and allows for minor adjustments without fear of loosening too much.I shouldn’t have waited this long to make the investment.

I have owned numerous brands of ball heads and used them in rugged outdoor conditions on almost every continent and BH-55 is by far my favorite. Quality materials and engineering. Rock solid on my tripod and clamps securly to full frame bodies & lenses. Exteremly smooth action on the stainless steel ball bearings locking knobs allowing quick locks as well as fine adjustments. Two 90-degree drop-notches well designed for quick positioning. In a word, quality.Worth the money as this will likely be the last ball head you'll ever need to buy.

This RRS ball head lives up to all of Really Right Stuff's reputation for quality, performance, weight and price. I was looking for a ball head that was more rigid than my previous ones, even at the price of changing to an Arca-Swiss compatible quick release system. The BH-55 LR really delivers rock-steady performance in long exposures. It is heavy and certainly is expensive but it's fully worth the price.

Simplemente la mejor rotula profecional que puedas comprar, se instalo en un tripode Gitzo GT3543LS, quedo perfecto, con la rotula anterior el peso de la camara con el lente zoom la vencia y perdia tiempo tratandola de ajustar por lo que perdia varia tomas de las aves, con esta rotula se acabo el problema como la pongas se queda fijamuy contento la mejor calidad, se ha estado usando desde hace varias semanas sin problemas, asi que si no quieres perder tiempo y fotos es lo que necesitas las aves no esperan :)
