This time, I attached a Markins head!
The ball head has a quick shoe!?
I haven't used a quick shoe since my days at Shinoyama...
I don't think there were any cameramen who used a quick shoe even during my time at the studio.
The difference is that the camera can be fixed in a few seconds!? That's all I thought. . .
But now I understand its meaning. . .
Maybe this will become the standard soon!?
Try attaching it this time! You'll understand its meaning.
It goes without saying that it can be attached quickly.
What makes it different from fixing with a tripod hole is this unique "grab style!?" This is the feature of this Markins!!!
When fixing with a tripod hole, even if you think you have fixed the camera, it can still shake a little with a pan bar.
But this grab style must be good!!! I can feel the difference.
And the combination of this sturdy tripod head and the quick shoe is just right!
In my case, I tried it on a carbon tripod.
I feel that this combination is quite good for location shooting.
There are no unnecessary parts such as a pan rod, the head is well made, and the coloring is stylish.
I chose the red one...
The head is well made and the screws are tightened well...
The knob that fixes the camera and the knob that pans the head? The knob in front is large and small...
Before I got used to it, I turned the knob while looking through the camera, and instead of the pan knob, I moved the camera fixing knob...
But I'll get used to it. . .
The head is well made and the smoothness is not rattling or rough.
You won't understand this until you use it...
The ease of use is beyond what can be written in the catalog specifications!
The colors, not too rough, like red and blue, are stylish for location use.
From now on, I plan to use this head for my location tripod!!!
