Got this tripod head for a double use. For glassing while hunting out west here in AZ, and for filming hunts of my monopod. Super lightweight, so it’s going to travel easily on my pack. Everything locks in place like it should and pans how it should easily. It’s going to really add great stability for both uses. Got it all rigged up and this going to be one of my new favorite accessories for some time! Great value and cost and fit my monopod great. Will be buying more in the future. One con is that if your not familiar with tripod heads there are no instructions but pretty straight forward even if you aren’t.
