AF-1100 E, Trigger Release Ball head, 526g
The SLIK AF-1100 E Trigger Release Ball head is considered by SLIK to be the “Digital Little Brother” of the enormously successful AF- 2100, the original trigger-action ball head that sparked a revolution in ball head design 20 years ago. The AF 2100 still remains a best-seller to this day.
The SLIK AF-1100 E uses a patented design that allows the trigger handle to release tension on the ball when it is squeezed and lock the ball head in any position by simply releasing the trigger handle. This innovative action allows the camera to be pointed in almost any direction with ease, making a tripod-mounted camera feel like more of an extension of the body.
A top-mounted bubble level makes leveling the camera quick and easy.
The AF 1100 E is more compact and light-weight than its AF-2100 predecessor, making it a perfect fit for today’s high-end digital point and shoot cameras, as well as the latest compact digital SLR’s (Canon G10/G11, Digital Rebel XSI/T1i/T2i, Nikon D3000/D5000/D50, D40, Olympus E-420/E-520/E-620, Sony Alpa, series DCS R1, etc.)
An easy to use all-metal quick release system makes mounting the camera fast and simple with an easy-to-use rectangular plate that sits in a shoe that can rotate 360° and lock facing in any direction. The AF-1100E quick release is shared with the following SLIK tripod heads:
-SBH-200DQ ball head (separate or included with the PRO 340 BH).
-SBH-280E ball head.
-SH-707E multi-action “EZ” pan head (PRO 330 EZ, PRO 340 EZ, SPRINT PRO EZ).
-SH-704E 3-way pan head.
-DQ-20 Quick Release adaptor.
It is now possible to have several different styles of SLIK heads for different shooting situations that all share the same quick release plate.
