The Manfrotto 484 Mini Ball Head features a strong die-cast construction, precision machined aluminum housing, and an extremely hard phenolic resin ball which provides smoother movements across all tilt positions.

Designed for use with compact, 35mm and small digital cameras. The strong die-cast construction, precision-machined aluminium housing and ball provide excellent smooth movements across all tilt positions. A single “ratchet” control lever securely locks both the +90°-90° ball and the 360° pan movements. Camera attachment is via a 60mm platform with 1/4” male thread. Head to tripod attachment is 3/8” female. All aluminum construction and black finish.  

Advantages:
 simple, functional, no-frills 
 easy and intuitive to use 
 
Suitable For:
 &quotbridge&quot cameras (compact SLR-type with built-in lenses)

Key Features:
  
•   sturdy all-metal construction  

•   the double 90° groove (one on each side of the head) means switching from landscape to portrait is convenient however you're set up  

•   a repositionable ratchet means that the locking lever's action will never be blocked either open or closed by interference with the camera body, tripod shoulder, etc... simply pull the lever outwards and it's free to be positioned more comfortably without affecting the locking mehanism. Then you can continue tightening or loosening the knob.  

•   a convenient single locking mechanism blocks or frees movement on all axes for greater speed of use
