What is affordable cheap tripod head for you

  One of the first accessories many people buy after getting a camera is a tripod, and most of those are the all-in-one kind with three legs on the bottom, and a top part called a head, onto which you mount your camera. Typically these heads feature a handle that juts out from one side that can be tightened or loosened to allow you to change the angle at which your camera is situated.

  When you’re ready to take the step of buying a tripod head and set of legs separately, there are so many options from which to choose it can leave you in a state of confusion with no clear answers. When you’re thinking about spending hundreds of dollars you don’t want to make a bad choice. So, I’m going to take a look at four of the most common types of tripod heads and discuss how they would suit different types of photography.

  The Sevenoak SK-EBH60 Panoramic Time Lapse Tripod Head is a portable mechanical panoramic head that provides an ideal solution for creating time-lapse videos or panoramic stills with GoPro/action camera, smart phone and DSLRs around 2kg. It includes a 1/4"-20 camera screw on top and a 3/8” to 1/4"-20 socket at the bottom for a tripod, and it can also be used directly on a tabletop or other flat surface.

  Based on a simple timer mechanism that needs no batteries, the SK-EBH60 is capable of panning 360° counterclockwise in 60 minutes. For clockwise panning you can hang the unit upside down, although this is only recommended for GoPro/action camera, smart phone or cameras weighing less than 1 lb. To double the panning speed, you can stack two units together.

  I remember the first time I walked into a camera store to look at a some tripod heads and was shocked to find that the sticker price was well beyond what I thought was reasonable. I thought to myself

“Why would anyone spend $150 on a tripod head alone, when a basic tripod could be had for less than half that amount?” Then I looked at the price of tripod legs and just about hit the floor. Over the years I came to realize that the reason these components are so expensive was because they are made of much higher-grade materials and built to specifications that demanding photographers need.
