Novoflex Magic-Ball

Strength: Industrial strength. Simplicity of design. visual appeal. Weakness: The friction control is slightly tighter in the fore/aft direction than side to side. Very well built and reliable. Tilts fully in any direction without rotating the base. Large operating handle is easily manipulated even in cold temperatures with mittens on. I bought mine when they first came out to use in Alaska. With winter temperatures quite often well below zero F., this ball head never failed and was easy to use. Customer Service None needed so far.
