ULANZI Ball Head with Claw Super Quick Release Design, Professional Metal 360° Rotating Panoramic Ball Head with Cold Shoe, Up 44.1lbs Load, for Tripod,Monopod,Slider,DSLR Camera (U-100)

Been using this for years and it's still perfect

Very high quality as you get what you pay for and I'm very happy with these. If you have multiple cameras and multiple tripods, this is one of the best solutions for very quick mount and dismounts. Be careful and don't do what I did and think you broke one, only to realize the lock get set by accident. Always double check the lock if you have any issues. I've been using these constantly for almost 3 months now and didn't realize just how useful they would be until I got to use them all the time.

This make setting my PhotoBooth really easy. It is strong and it work as it seems. The price is a little high but it worth it. You can add plate or clamps if you’re on a tight budget. It has the option to lock and unlock.

I use this for my 360 booth arm and it is great holds my light and phone in place.

So this WILL hold a Nikon D850. It WILL mount one plate to a tripod for convertible and easy quick release. I will likely stock all my tripods with this extra head.What it WON'T do is tragic. The 3/4 hole is only on the bottom plate not the top one that goes on to your camera. Meaning if you want to put it on a non quick release tripod you have to unscrew it from your camera which defeats the point. If they added a second hole under the initial screw so you NEVER had to take off the plate it'd be perfect. Unfortunately, it's still inconvenient unless you only have 1 tripod or stock them on any tripod you have which for the price is kind of ☠️

The media could not be loaded. I just opened the products 30 mins ago. I am in love already. I got one Claw Quick Release Ball Head and 1 Claw base today with a few more coming tomorrow. I am a person with many disabilities and have a lot of trouble with hand dexterity…turning, squeezing objects to hold them and dropping them, and my stability as you can tell from my video with my iPhone is not very stable. After I received my mounting products I was stuck on what to do to change them all the time and having to screw and unscrew all of them. Then I was watching some videos and saw the claw system and I was like that’s it! I got all my mounts together to figure out the parts and what I would need to have a Claw Base on all of them and have the Claw top always on my GoPro. I couldn’t wait until tomorrow to try them out on all my mounts. I am so so happy. Everything including the Claw Ball Set is very light and so easy to use. I can even do it one handed which is an accomplishment in itself. I love the easy easy to pop the camera off and back on again with the additional feature of the sliding lock to guarantee it won’t accidentally fall off. You now have me extremely excited to use my GoPro on my upcoming trip. I switch from my manual wheelchair to walking some short distances sometimes so the claw mount I have is for my wheelchair and the rest are mostly attached mounts to me or bags as I need my hands free for either wheeling my wheelchair or catching my balance. Thank you so much for this amazing product!!!I will mention 3 things:1. I was a little skeptical about buying the amount I did and it not working at the prices. Now that I have them, it was extremely worth it.2. I love the Claw Ball Head that you can literally take great Panasonic shots so easily without bouncing up and down like my hands do. Also the ball head being able to go to a right angle is great. I wish I had a few more.3. The reason I chose Claw and not Falcon is because I knew there was no way I would be able to do the sliding with my hands and no guarantee that when I did attach it and let go, it would be on.Though I do not have Parkinson’s, I do believe that this actually would be an easy connection for your loved ones that do have disorders in their hands or nervous system.Thank you again so much!!!!

The build quality is excellent, with a solid metal construction that feels durable and premium. The quick-release mechanism is one of the best I’ve used—it’s smooth, secure, and makes swapping cameras between ball heads effortless. No more fiddling with screws or wasting time adjusting plates!The ball movement is buttery smooth, and it locks in place firmly with no slip, even under heavier setups. I’ve used these on tripods, monopods, and even sliders, and they perform consistently well. If you’re looking for a high-quality, reliable ball head with a fantastic quick-release system, this is the one to get. Highly recommended!

I hike the back country in the Boreal Forest of northeastern Minnesota. I want a light camera and Monopod setup for my Sony A6300. I use the Amazon Basics Monopod. The combination is fantastic.
