From previous experience with Manfrotto, the MH496-BHUS was the front runner but I gave all other brands a fair shake. There are some nice ball heads but pricey. The Manfrotto MH496-BHUS fell at the right price point and quality. The ball head design is excellent, very solid feeling. There are separate controls for panning, tilting etc. There is a smaller "screw" to control friction of the ball head so it does not fall over. The ball head goes with great with Manfrotto tripods. I will have peace of mind knowing that a DSLR with heavier lens will not fall over. I feel that the Manfrotto MH496-BHUS is a good choice for what i need to do. Review: Really good built! - Fits well, took me a while to find a plate to replace it. But eventually I got one. Still having small troubles with playing with the inside lock mechanism but it works really nice. (My only issue is that it feels like sometimes it doesn’t hold the weight right. ) ## Features - Manfrotto 494 Aluminum Center Ball Head - 200PL-PRO Quick Release Plate MH494-BH - Safety Payload Weight: 17.64 lbs (8.00kg) - Material: Aluminum ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B077WY17L6 | | Audio Recording | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #68,116 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #98 in Tripod Heads | | Brand | Manfrotto | | Built-In Media | 1 | | Color | Black | | Colour | Black | | Compatible Devices | Camera | | Compatible devices | Camera | | Country of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 175 Reviews | | Folded Size | Compact, specific dimensions not provided | | Folded size | Compact, specific dimensions not provided | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00719821423904 | | Item Weight | 331 Grams | | Item weight | 331 Grams | | Manufacturer | Manfrotto | | Manufacturer Part Number | MH494-BH | | Maximum Weight Recommendation | 8 Pounds | | Media Type | ProductImage | | Model Name | MH494-BHUS | | Model Number | MH494-BHUS | | Screen Size | 1.57 Inches | | Shooting Modes | Landscape | | UPC | 719821423904 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | 1 | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Color:** Black - **Brand:** Manfrotto - **Compatible Devices:** Camera - **Item Weight:** 14.72 ounces - **Maximum Weight Recommendation:** 8 Pounds - **Folded Size:** Compact, specific dimensions not provided - **UPC:** 719821423904 ## Images ![Manfrotto 494 Ball Head with 200PL-PRO Quick Release Plate - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61j71RWoj1L.jpg) ![Manfrotto 494 Ball Head with 200PL-PRO Quick Release Plate - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51iFyOd8DeL.jpg) ![Manfrotto 494 Ball Head with 200PL-PRO Quick Release Plate - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/518XoKe+hwL.jpg) ![Manfrotto 494 Ball Head with 200PL-PRO Quick Release Plate - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51rO40H65DL.jpg) ![Manfrotto 494 Ball Head with 200PL-PRO Quick Release Plate - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51WV4+xPjzL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Typical Manfrotto quality *by S***A on 6 November 2020* As a second (maybe 3rd or 4th) go around with tripod, I looked all over for a ball head that is 1) Good quality 2) Offers stability 3) Reasonably priced.

But eventually I got one. Still having small troubles with playing with the inside lock mechanism but it works really nice. (My only issue is that it feels like sometimes it doesn’t hold the weight right. ) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Usual Manfrotto quality *by T***D on 19 January 2021* Very stable and robust for the money. I just wish the lock for the base wasn't such a tiny knob. If using on a slider at angle, you have to make sure that lock knob is tighter than usual. ## Frequently Bought Together - Manfrotto 490 Centre Ball Head, for Camera Tripods, Fluid Ball Head for Ergonomic and Functional Tripods, Camera Stabilizer, Photography Accessories, Simple and Intuitive (MH494-BH) - Manfrotto 200PL RC2-System Quick Release Plate with 1/4"-20 Screw and 3/8" Bushing Adapter - Manfrotto 3-Section Camera Tripod, Carbon Fiber Photography Accessories, Travel Tripod for Content Creation, Professional Photography,MT055XPRO3 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hu/products/271127531-manfrotto-494-ball-head-with-200pl-pro-quick-release-plate](https://www.desertcart.hu/products/271127531-manfrotto-494-ball-head-with-200pl-pro-quick-release-plate) --- *Product available on Desertcart Hungary* *Store origin: HU* *Last updated: 2026-06-18*
