NovoflexMini Tripod Accessory Ball Head with Flash Shoe (NEIGER-19)

This Novoflex head includes a pan feature that is unnecessary and ineffective because it doesn't really tighten down adequately. If you want a Novoflex, get the Ball 19. It comes without the pan feature. These ball heads are designed for very small cameras and ineffective controls are just as likely to damage a camera as their larger cousins.

For the most part this is a well made ultra light panning ball head. The only problem I've encounter is that the plastic knurl for unscrewing from the camera spins independent of the metal threads and therefore makes it difficult to unscrew without imposing some kind of angled pressure that creates sufficient friction to turn the threads. I don't know if this is a poor design or a defect in the unit I purchased.

German engineering!

One of the screws was loose very easy! they are not too strong to support my flashes!

Am Bild wird der BALL 19PN gezeigt, geliefert wird aber der M-NEIGER.Auch wenn der M-NEIGER top ist, man erwartet etwas anderes....

Für MICH leider nicht wirklich zu gebrauchen.Dadurch das der Kugelkopf recht klein und fummelig ist, kann ich leider die Schrauben nicht richtig festziehen, aber vielleicht ist das ja auch nur bei meinem so.VGH. Götz
