Description
A versatile miniature ball head with an incredible load capacity—includes a cold shoe, camera platform, cold foot, and tripod base for a wide range of mounting options.
The ProMaster Famous Shoes Ball Head is a precision-engineered, micro-sized multitool for photographers and videographers. It is incredibly compact and lightweight at just two inches tall and less than 1/7th of a pound, but holds up to 11 pounds! A repositionable single-action lever controls the ball and socket, as well as 360-degree rotation at the base.
The top of Famous Shoes is a convertible, reversible platform. One side has a cold shoe that can accept accessories such as a light, microphone, or monitor. Unscrew the cold shoe from the neck, flip it over, and reinstall it to reveal a standard 1/4"-20 bolt for mounting a camera or other compatible accessory.
The bottom of Famous Shoes features a durable aluminum cold foot that can mount the head to a camera’s hot shoe, a ProMaster Triple Bracket, or other cold shoe accessories. Unscrew it to reveal a 1/4"-20 threaded port for attaching the head to a tripod, light stand, flex arm, clamp, and more.
