FLEXSHOOTER Pro - universal ball head, the only multi tripod heads with ball in ball design and polymer spring balancing system.

The two balls allow use as a classic ball head or as a telescopic head with leveling. 

The outer ball is mounted in a plastic insert and allows precise adjustment of the position without sagging. The design results in an extremely low profile high-performance ball head. 

If the head is to be used as a telescopic leveler, the outer ball is simply used for leveling (a precise circular level helps with this), then locked and the inner ball is used to pan and tilt without the possibility of tipping sideways, whereby the tilt is even cushioned forwards and backwards by a polymer spring mechanism. 

The Flexshooter clamp (38 mm dovetail cross clamp) - either as a lever or screw version, depending on your choice - allows easy coupling with cameras and lenses that must be equipped with appropriate clamping profiles. 

 Please note: the manufacturer recommends that the inner and outer ball should never be lubricated. The balls are self-lubricating. The balls can simply be cleaned with clear water and then dried with a microfiber cloth.
