Same as the 486 but equipped with a 3157N quick-release camera plate. The 486RC2 is a direct replacement of the 3413QR and 3055S ProBall and Heavy-Duty Double Action Ball Heads.

Camera plate has a 1/4-20 inch male thread and head to tripod attachment is 3/8 inch female.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great for outdoors
The primary advantage of this head is its light weight which makes it a great fit with the light carbon fiber tripods. Despite the light weight it is strongly built and has all the basic functions. The single lever means you have to keep one hand on your camera or it will flop in ways you will not like. The trick is to loosen the ball just enough to rotate the camera (while holidng it with your other hand) to the position you want and then tighten. A level here would have been nice. All in all this ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Well made but has Downside
This product is sturdy and well made. However, as both the vertical and horizontal setting are controlled by one lever, it is difficult to really make sure your shots are level horizontally - independent of the tripod which oftentimes has a bubble setting to assure horizontal alignment.
Also, I have a EOS 1D Mark III plus a zoom lens, if you want to take vertical shots (as in turning the camera to its side), it seems that no matter how hard you secure the lever, the camera will droop down.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - convenient and easy to use
Really easy and convenient to use instead of the standard head that comes with most tripods.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Good for the money.
This ball head does a good job for the money. I would eventually like to get a Markins, but that will be a large chunk of cash.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good for the Money
This is a well built ball head that is good if your on a budget. Holds wait well without sag. Now that I have used it awhile I am wishing I had paid up a little bit to get one with a separate control for panning (a feature I initially didn't think I would need at all).

Great value for the money though. (tested with d80 with battery grip, heavy fast lens and a speedlight without sag)
