Giottos MH3300 Head
The Giottos MH-3300 Pro Series II Extra Large Ballhead with MH-658 Quick Release System is a "socket & ball" head that is strong enough to support the heaviest of professional SLR cameras. It has been carefully designed and manufactured to precisely position the camera easily and securely.

In order to cut back on its weight, this head features a hollowed out heavily anodized aluminum ball. The body shell (socket) follows a slimmer and lighter structure design, yet offers increased hardness. Three separate knobs provide optimal security and convenience. In addition to the main locking knob, it also features a friction control knob, and a separate locking knob for pan control.

The attached MH-658 is a 3.4" (86mm) long clamp-style quick release system that is compatible with plates that fit the Arca Swiss standard. It comes with horizontal and vertical bubble levels, and anti-twist reversible tabs on the plate to prevent slippage when using the head in a vertical position.

All accessories are in near pristine condition with no damage anywhere as they have been used exclusively indoors in a photo studio setting. Camera is older than any of the accessories and shows some signs of wear but would still be considered to be in excellent condition with the only issues being minor chips in the grey paint around the corners as pictured and a slight amount of verdigris in the ball connections of the tilt shift bellows post as seen in the last photo. Lenses are clean and very clear with fast shutters which operate at their stated speeds with no issues.

This kit is ready to have you creating incredible photos without having to hunt down every accessory needed to put together all the necessary bits or having to use a weak tripod or head which can't support a professional camera. This is being sold as a set and pieces will not be separated.

Deceptive ad. Implied seller was owner and personally experienced using the equipment. Seller is in fact a reseller just parroting what they have been told. The experience certainly will influence any future purchases on Etsy. Etsy also makes tracking and checking status of order difficult. I eventually got what I thought I ordered and based on an initial superficial check I think I am OK with the equipment.
