National Geographic NGEH2 tripod head

Hydrostatic Head RC5 The NGEH1 and NGEH2 heads are simply the most advanced ball heads in the world, incorporating the innovative hydrostatic locking system to produce an absolute rock-solid lock with the small turn of a knob. Using hydraulics instead of a mechanical approach produces a supertight lock with minimal amounts of knob turning. The effect produced is a smooth moving ball that when locked, essentially becomes a solid part with the head. This revolutionary head uses the latest materials for silky-smooth operation, and its magnesium shell is feather light. Ideal for photographers using large telephoto lenses, the NGEH1 is easy to operate, with a newly designed, large ergonomic handle with precise friction adjustment. A rubber bellows system prevents dirt and debris from entering the ball area, ensuring problem-free photography even in the most extreme locations.
