The PROMASTER XC-MH26 BALL HEAD is well featured, technical ball head with incredible strength in a compact and lightweight form factor. It is made of machined (not cast) high grade aluminum.

The XC-MH26's dual action design uses separate knobs to adjust the ball tension and the panning control. An etched, numbered scale is applied to the base of this head for precise panning movements. The tension control knob has an integrated memory lock dial which allows you to set a repeatable tension stop. Its quick release system uses a dovetail style plate (arca-type) with safety bolts. All knobs are covered in a soft yet grippy material that is comfortable and easy on your fingers, even in cold weather. Multiple bubble levels (1 bullseye and 2 line levels) are integrated so you can precisely level your camera in either a horizontal or vertical position. The included quick release plate has a strap slot which is compatible with a variety of straps and hand grips.

Mia ★★★★★

I've been really impressed with how light this ball head is while still feeling rock solid under my full-frame setup. The machined aluminum construction gives it a premium feel that I wasn't expecting at this price point.

Ruby D. ★★★★★

The locking mechanism is smooth and precise, and it holds my heavy telephoto lens steady without any droop. I appreciate how compact and lightweight it is for the solid build quality.

Hazel J. ★★★★★

The machined aluminum body feels incredibly solid for its size, and the locking mechanism holds my heavy telephoto steady without any drift. I've been using it all week in the field and it's a noticeable upgrade from my old cast head.
