Manfrotto tirpod head
By Robert Derry
I use extension tubes for close up work a fair amount, I needed a tripod head that was smooth in opperation. I emailed Manfrotto UK direct and got a reply back the same day recommending the 229 pro head. (very good helpful service from Manfrotto)In my opinion this is a very good head. Operation is silky smooth but still locks up rock solid on all three axis with just a 1/4 turn of the rubber clad handles. The quick relese plate is a easy one hand operation and also locks up solid with just a simple snap down of the camera and once locked down has a safety device to prevent it becoming detatched from the tripod. For me it is almost perfect and I would rate it as very good value and fantastic quality. Fitted onto my old but still very good 055CB tripod it is a truly exellent piece of photographic kit. I will give it 10/10Edit 23rd July 2010I took my 229 Pro head to the shooting range to cronograph some full bore rifle rounds. When placed about 2 Metres from the muzzle and shooting 50 .338 Lapua Magnum , 25 .300 Winchester magnum and several 7.62MM NATO rounds over the cronograph the head or tripod had not moved at all. In the past I have had to reset my none Manfrotto tripod after just a few shots. If it will take muzzle blast from a .338 LM it will take most pretty well anything.

By Mr. C. Close
Lovely quality head. Much nicer than previous model.One thing to watch is I take the handles out when travelling and with this model they are sprung so make sure you don't lose the spring.

By Caroline
Heavy, rock solid stable and easy to use for secure support of a traditional large format camera. Expensive but necessary.
