Your powerful partner for photo and video equipment of all kinds the ball heads of the mantona Fortress series are the ideal partner for your photo and video equipment. Whether telephoto lens, spotting scope, digital camera, (digital) mirror reflex camera, DSLM mirror-less camera or also camcorder and heavy video cameras - the application possibilities of this ball head are versatile. The accuracy and precision of these ball heads allows precise and millimeter-accurate work with both heavy and light equipment such as action cams or smartphones (separate holder required). Solid and first-class mechanical base for a secure hold The maximum load capacity of 15 kg with Fortress 40 model requires a solid and high-quality base. The housing of the Fortress series is therefore made of high-strength, CNC-milled aluminum. Minimum manufacturing tolerances and high-quality components ensure the exceptionally high load capacity and a convincing smooth running of this ball head. The black anodized housing has an excellent surface finish. This coating provides for an extremely scratch-proof surface and an attractive appearance. The 40 mm ball of the Fortress 40 is cleanly damped and very precisely manufactured. Together with the first-class processed housing and the integrated mechanics, it provides for the very high holding force of this ball head. The annoying sagging of the ball head after locking is thus reduced to a minimum. Despite the elaborate design, this ball head weighs only 443 g including quick-change plate and is thus a real light weight in its class. First-class control element with convincing functionality and haptics of the Fortress ball head has a total of 3 control buttons. The main locking button provides a rubber coating for pleasant haptics and optimum power transmission. This control element, which is elementary for a ball head, has a calibration ring and a friction travel control screw. The mantona Fortress series enables with this control button not only the setting of the resistance and the locking of the installed ball, but also as a special feature the selection of a short or long adjustment path for the locking of the ball head. With the thumb or the accompanying tool, the friction path can be easily and effectively adjusted to the weight of your equipment or also to your individual preferences. Thus, a long adjustment range provides for a particularly sensitive operability. For heavy equipment or particularly fast handling, the friction path can be reduced or almost completely blocked. This effectively prevents unwanted loosening or tilting of the mounted equipment under high load. The two control buttons for quick-release plate clamping and the panorama function are made of aluminum and provide for an optimum operability and attractive appearance. Arca Swiss compatible Quick-change plate in XL format and with scaling of this ball head has a custom-made and Arca-Swiss compatible quick-change plate. Since the Fortress series is designed for particularly high load capacities, a particularly high-quality solution has also been placed on the quick-change plate. The quick-change plate of the mantona Fortress 40 ball head offers with its dimensions of 60 x 44 x 11 mm an especially large bearing surface. Due to the wide contact surface, large and heavy attachment parts can also be secured. The quick-change plate is equipped with anti-slip rubbers and fall-protection pins. This prevents unintentional release from the ball head. The built-in 1/4 inch camera attachment screw can be placed individually through 3 holes and screwed through the rear D-ring even without additional tools. Especially for successful panorama photos and video recordings a perfect adjustment of your recording device on the tripod is important. For perfect alignment of your equipment, an additional scale is attached to the quick-change plate of the Fortress ball heads. Together with the center marking on the quick-change plate clamp, a millimeter-accurate and quick adjustment of the ball head is thus child's play. A total of 3 spirit levels make it easier for you to level the ball head with this ball head. Two spirit levels offset by 90 degrees are integrated in the quick-change plate holder and there is another can bubble for horizontal orientation in the locking screw of the quick-change plate clamp. Panoramas become a pleasure for successful panorama winks provides the very solid ball head recording with the included panorama scale. A separate friction and locking button provides for optimal and fast adjustment of the resistance in panorama turning. In combination with the high-quality mechanics and the clean damping, panoramas become a pleasure. The ball head has a 3/8 inch threaded hole at the bottom for mounting on stands or sliders. A 3/8 to 1/4 inch thread adapter is also included in the delivery and allows mounting on this connection format. Complete delivery scope in the scope of supply of the mantona Fortress series are a transport and storage bag; a 3/8 to 1/4 inch thread adapter and a tool set are already included as standard.
