Manfrotto 808RC4 Standard 3 Way Head

The Manfrotto 808RC4 3 way tripod head incorporates a number of new features while maintaining all the key elements of it's predecessors. There are two balance springs in the vertical tilt (forward/backward) and horizontal tilt (left/right) movements, which enable you to handle heavier camera loads more comfortably with minimal effort. As a result this head is ideal for use with very long lenses. Both springs can be turned off in case normal head operation is required. The strong aluminium design is suitable to support up to 8kg yet lightweight and small enough to pack in any camera kit. The standard quick release system is used to accommodate larger camera platforms which incorporates dual axis bubble levels to achieve level shots.

Claire H. ★★★★★

The balance spring on this 3-way head is a game changer for my long telephoto lens—no more drift when I lock the tilt, and the panning is buttery smooth. Took me a minute to learn the controls, but now I can't imagine going back to my old ball head.

Carter ★★★★★

The balance spring on this head is the standout feature—it holds my heavy telephoto setup steady without any drift, even at awkward angles. Sliding the camera into the quick release plate is effortless, and the locks are firm enough that I don't worry about sudden movement. Took it out for a full af
