The XPRO Ball Head has been updated with new features to provide photographers with a lightweight and sturdy option for their equipment. Made from magnesium alloy, this ball head weighs only 0.5kg, making it easy to carry around. Despite its lightweight construction, it can support a maximum payload of 15kg.
The ball head also boasts a new triple-locking system using three wedges to ensure complete stability and eliminate any drift. It also has variable friction for precise adjustments based on the weight of your camera, as well as two leveling bubbles for accurate setup. The use of polymer rings instead of grease allows for smooth and accurate camera movements. Additionally, it comes with the popular 200PL Quick Release photographic plate for added convenience.

About the Manfrotto XPRO Magnesium Ball Head with 200PL Plate
Unparalleled precision and high performance. The Manfrotto XPRO Ball Head gives your camera exceptional stability and security, even when you are using heavy, premium equipment. That's because it has an innovative new triple locking system for guaranteed camera stability, which means you can look forward to shake-free shots every time. Avoid drift thanks to the three wedges that enclose and block the sphere, and easily balance the weight of your equipment with friction control.
The XPRO Ball Head's two levelling bubbles enable you to make adjustments with the locking knobs open, and the new polymer rings ensure smoother, more precise camera movement. No more unwanted messy grease means nothing will get in the way of that perfect shot.
This tripod head is also highly portable and lightweight, weighing just 0.52kg but supporting an incredible payload of 15kg thanks to its sturdy magnesium design. It also features the highly popular Manfrotto 200PL plate, which can be used with a wide range of equipment.
