good but not great February 8, 2008
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I got this head to go with a spotting scope after seeing it used by several others. First problem I had was the 3/8 mounting screw hole with no bushing supplied for 1/4-20 tripods, which used to be the standard. I had to cannibalize something else to get the bushing. Biggest complaint I have is that the horizontal traverse is much too stiff. Sometimes the head will start to unscrew from the tripod even though I have it tightened down as much as I can. It's much stiffer than the vertical traverse. I tried oiling the bushings under the tension screw but that did nothing. In fact, it is so tight that it does not always move smoothly. I assume I have a badly manufactured product, but I needed it when I got it so I had no choice but to use it. I'd look for another make and model before I would buy this 1 again.

I have been using this product since I originally wrote this review. While everything I stated at the time was true, I want to be fair. After considerable use the Horizontal movement has loosened up to the point that I feel it it is just about right. If I were rating it today I would give it 4 stars instead of 3.
