Digital camera reviews of Vanguard SBH-100 Small Magnesium Alloy Ballhead with Two Onboard Bubble Levels
Digital camera Review: 2 year review
Summary: 3 Stars
I purchased the Vanguard SBH-100 ballhead about two years ago and since then, have used it a fair amount (about 2x a month) average.
At first it seemed like a great deal and worked well as a beginner ballhead. But after about a year, the ballhead started to stick and now, it's really hard to move even when fully loosened. The mounting plate is a little small and therefore, the camera tends to shift a little after I tighten down the knob. Again, it moved alittle, but enough to have to recompose my shots.
If I had to do it again, I would probably have purchased a Manfrotto 488RC2. It's alittle more, but is more stable and remains smooth with years of use. The Manfrotto 488RC2 does move alittle after tightening, but a lot less than the Vanguard.
