Mini Ballhead Monitor Mount

Really nice quality items. Been using the Smallrig brand for a number of years and find them to be really nice to use and hard wearing pieces of essential kit for productions. I have the slightly older version of these and they are used daily - yeas actually daily and they're still absolutely perfect after at least 6 years. In a "throw away society" era it's nice to still buy simple products that "just work" doing what they were designed to do.

Absolutely brilliant, high quality, feels really nice, sturdy, just a really pleasant surprise given the price! And it’s a twin pack, if you need one of these (or two) just order it, no regrets at all

Like:Beautifully constructed. Versatile. Sturdy. Looks good. Lightweight and space saving.Dislike:(1) The bottom nut that tightenes the grip of the cold shoe needs a rubber ring or washer. As supplied there is metal to metal contact on the camera hot shoe which scratches the outer face of the latter.(2) One of the lugs on the ball tightening screw is too long. When used without the shoe on a tripod head it collides and cannot be tightened unless the head is tiny (no larger than 24mm diameter). Sawed mine off!Pity. Otherwise 5 stars (6 if they could be awarded)!

Very sturdy and top quality. Nice finish and value for money. I used it and it exceeded my expectations

So many options !

Seem to be constantly buying small ball heads for little cameras to be put on. These have been the best we've ever had. All metal design, small, but as with all small rig kit, well made. We have finally found our 'go to' when we need replacements.

I was looking for a small ballhead for my Action 4 and this is tiny! It's exactly what I was looking for.Construction is all metal with a rubberised band around the body, making gripping the thing easy. I was concerned I'd find the tightening screw fiddly, but that tab allows easy purchase between thumb and forefinger. It's a better solution than the usual rounded, plastic knob, especially considering its diminutive size.I did buy another similar sized Smallrig ball-head, just in case this wasn't fit for purpose, but this is exactly what I was looking for and can't see how they could improve on the design. I like that the colour matches the Action 4's Smallrig cage, which was purely coincidental.For its size it's solid, which is what you'd expect from Smallrig, but I've included some photos so you can see it in use because I found the product photos difficult to visualise. I've screwed a Tilta magnetic clip to the top of the ballhead, allowing quick release of the Action 4.I'm not sure I needed two of these but they only came as a pack of two, and I'll probably find a use for the other. Could work well as a small light mount.

So, these things are excellent - they do exactly what I wanted to AND they didn't cost me a fortune.So you may be asking, why did they only get a 4 star instead of the 5 star rating that they probably should get.Well, its because Smallrig clearly expects that their items will be being bought by photographers and folks with a clue - sadly in this instance, I am neither of those things .And so, something which an experienced photographer would have figured out in exactly zero time, (how to mount the damned things to the monitor shelf in the picture) took me absolutely ages and I'm not ashamed to say that I definitely swore, a lot, the whole time I was trying to figure out how the hell to fit them.How could the item have gotten 5 stars - simple, they could have included some rudimentary instructions explaining how the flaming things work, preferably in small words, because as previously stated I am clearly clueless.Now that they are fitted, however, they do exactly what I wanted, which is to ensure consistent lighting levels for Zoom/Teams calls and the upcoming YouTube content!

parfait solide petit et bien fait , je recommande !!!

Small rig una sicurezza. Prodotti ben fatti, molto curati e solidi. Tutto alluminio, stretta della sfera robusta. Possibilità di smontare la slitta cold shoe con l’apposita griglia per cambiare l’attacco in vite femmina. Scatola da due pezzi.

Heel handig als je met losse flitsers werkt, ze voelen degelijk aan.
