The ball head is perfect for smooth, controllable camera movement, ideal for the dual-panoramic mode which allows the head to pan 360-degrees from the quick-release platform, as well as from the base of the head.
Dual inclined internal lock rings are 30% stronger than previous models, for increased security of your kit whilst mounted. Additionally, calibration marks allow you to replicate movements with precise accuracy in quick succession.
Choice of Rubber or Spiked Tripod Feet
Be prepared for any location with a choice of spiked or rubber feet. Choose rubber feet for grip on smooth surfaces such as wood flooring and rock. Or, opt for the spiked feet on softer surfaces such as grass. The Tortoise 03C is adaptive to all of these environments.
