Our new Acratech GV2 Ballhead is uniquely designed to function both as a ballhead
and as a Gimbal head.
Traditional ballhead designs work well for most photography but when longer lenses with tripod collars are used; it can be difficut to control them. In the past it was necessary to carry a separate Gimbal head or Gimbal attachment for your ballhead.
The Acratech GV2 Ballhead solves this problem by functioning as a Gimbal head simply by rotating the ball into the Gimbal slot on the side of the ballhead. We put a bushing on the stem of the ball and a pin on the bottom of the ball to provide smooth rotation.
It provides total ease of use and freedom of movement.
The Ultimate GV2 Ballhead works well with lenses up to a 400mm F 4.0.
