VANGUARD GH-100 Pistol Grip Ball Head.f4v

[signalsoldier]

It appears to be very limited on the tilt up...can anybody tell me how far this things tilt vertically upwards?

[vanguardworldcom]

@signalsoldier

It tilts upwards 32 degrees and downwards 90 degrees. If you need it to tilt up higher, a little trick is to mount the camera on it reversed so that the grip is on the same side as the lens. A little unconventional but it works great.

@vanguardworldcom

Thanks for the answer bro...and that is a neat lil trick but 32 degrees should be enough especially with a wide angle lens. Thanks I think I may purchase this!

@vanguardworldcom Will it attach to the Espod Plus 204AP?

[vanguardworldcom]

@AgentJuly19903 Technically it could but isn't a good match. The base of the Espod Plus 204AP center column is much smaller than the base of GH-100. It's best suited for a 26mm or larger top leg section tripod.

One question ....how in the world are you suposed to use the shutter realese and such things when one hand is on the frip and one under the lens?

[Chefsglen]

Oops nvm, yes it does... Silly me

[Chefsglen]

Does this have a quick release place

I purchased the Alta pro 263at tripod a few months ago and it came with this head, a great head. It can be a pain when taking astro pics as you need to swing the grip around to the front of the tripod so you can tilt the camera up, tends to make it a bit more tricky to get good smooth movement. And will not take a Canon 7D with a battery grip either. Over all though I'd recommend this head no problem.

I just got mine , but it sucks that I can not use my Sigma 70-200mm lens collar (like the one they use on the video) because it doesn't fit with my Battery Grip Nikon D300

[Colombiandaniel]
