Manfrotto 494RC2 Mini Ball Head is a lightweight ball head that's perfect for smaller cameras (maximum load--8.82 lbs). It's got a quick-release plate, a newly designed friction control knob that allows micro movements without engaging the head-locking mechanism, and a locking mechanism that will lock the head in both the +90o/-90o tilt position and the 360o panning position.
- A new friction control knob allows micro movements without having to engage the head locking mechanism.
- A smart ratcheting locking lever allows the user to place it in a comfortable position in order to use it in the most convenient way.
- The locking lever securely locks the head both in the +90o and -90o ball positions and in the 360o pan movements.
