Review – Manfrotto XPRO Ball Head in magnesium with 200PL plate MHXPRO-BHQ2

My review about Manfrotto XPRO Ball Head in magnesium with 200PL plate MHXPRO-BHQ2

If you did read my previous blog post, you will know that I did use this ball head on the top of my Manfrotto MT190CXPRO4 Carbon Fiber Tripod, the review of the tripod here.

It is very easy to say both make a great combination.

I did landscape shots, portrait shots, indoor and even do filming with manual rotation.

A Premium Quality !

What I really appreciate:
. triple locking mechanism system for guaranteed precision
. oversize sphere
. new polymer rings for smooth, grease-free camera movements
. 2 levelling bubbles for a perfect framing and shooting
. good stability and security for your camera.
. 360° panning numbered scale
. 200PL + RC2 for quick-release clamp and plate

The three wedges give you a high precision, fine-tune in the adjustment and block the sphere.

Manfrotto XPRO Ball Head in magnesium with 200PL plate MHXPRO-BHQ2 is just amazing for photography, for video where you can find something more adaptable with a hand grip.

Whenever I travel for my documentary or do any corporate task, I have this amazing MANFROTTO kit set between my bag – tripod – ball head which match perfectly.

I hope that i will be able to use more products from MANFROTTO and do a review about their Messenger bag, drone bag, light stand, head and stand for video because i plan to explore more videography to make my documentary work more alluring.

Thanks again to Cathay Photo and MANFROTTO Singapore.
