FLM Ball Head
Press Release  |  Aug 09, 2013  | 
The CB-58FTR is FLM's largest ball head, built to accept both a horizontal and vertical load of up to 130 lbs. It weighs well under 2 lbs thanks to its hollow CNC-machined ball. Photographers requiring extra precision will enjoy the tilt lock feature, allowing one to lock the side-to-side movement of the ball head, at any angle, and permitting only front-to-back movement of the ball.
