Manfrotto 405B Pro Geared Head

The Manfrotto geared heads are the most precise heads on the market. They use a tooth and cog mechanism on each axis of rotation to allow extra-fine control over framing adjustment. Because they don't require locking off or unlocking between movements, they are especially convenient and secure supports for use with heavy photographic equipment.

The 405 is the head to choose for speed and digital precision. It provides ideal support and fast, pinpoint positioning for professional medium format cameras. It was designed specifically to meet the more exacting, time-sensitive needs of busy professional digital photographers who shoot with medium format or 35mm camera/back with payloads up to 7.5kg. It utilizes large, easy-to-grip knobs that provide smooth, positive, geared control through pan and frontal and lateral tilt. In addition to its 3-D geared functions, the 405 also incorporates a unique feature that allows you to instantly disengage the gears and roughly position the camera by hand, then instantly re-engage them for ultra-precise final alignment. Camera attachment: 1/4” and 3/8” screw.
