Neewer Tripod Fluid Head Pan Tilt Head with Arca Type Quick Release Plate and Handle, Metal Panorama Head with Scaled Base (⌀37mm) for Compact Video Camera DSLR Camera, Load up to 6.6lb, GM24 (Blue)

Really happy with this item. Bought for a monopod and it was a good weight - performance solution. It is really good quality. I do not fit the arm. I used a black anodized panhead metric bolt to replace it, using the O ring from the arm and a second O ring I had to hand to make sure no dust can get into the head. My camera/lens is about 1.7Kg so within the spec of the head and it is really nice in damping out movement as I frame birds with a long (800mm) lens.

The Neewer GM24 is very small, light and well engineered.I was going to buy the slightly smaller and 30-40gms lighter (which is negligible) Smallrig, for those reasons, and because the main body does look more elegant than the bulkier looking Neewer.However, I went with the Neewer because the reviews were almost unanimously good for it, but not for the Smallrig.I am very glad I chose the Neewer, as it's "fluid" movement is superb, with the tilt being somewhat stiffer than the pan, (understandably), to allow for heavier lenses.The only real issue I have with it, is the overly small locking levers,...which are, however, very cleverly shaped (somewhat like a crescent, for your thumb) so you know exactly which way to tighten or loosen the head. The Smallrig levers seem to be just as small but do not have this excellent feature.I have to say that this is the very first review I have ever written, so that gives some idea of my delight with my new Neewer GM24 mini tripod head!I highly recommend it for travellers, vloggers, Go Pro-ers, or anyone who just wants a very small pan and tilt tripod head.As can be seen in the photos, I am using it for videoing on my kayak. Up until now, I have been using a gorilla-pod type of mini, leg-bending, tripod (with a ball-head, which I hate), clinging onto a full-ish dry-bag near the front of the kayak.From now on, I shall be taking horizontal and smooth, unjerky, fluid videos on my kayak, at last!

I'm using this for a small spotting scope. It is remarkably well made and feels much more expensive than it is. The tilt function is very smooth. The pan is comparatively jerky but for the price I can't complain, and with some practise a relativey smooth movement can be achieved.

Great build quality and superb value for money..

I bought this to use with a small travel spotting scope for an upcoming trip abroad as a replacement for the ball head that came with the tripod.The head is well designed, well made unit. Solid and smooth in operation. Tilt axis has a nice smooth drag and the handle length compliments the head well.The only downside is that the panning axis has no drag. Its a little loose and it is easy to move the scope off target when focusing.For the money though, this head represents excellent value for anyone looking for a lightweight travel setup. It won't do for a full sized, 70-80mm scope but it should be fine for any of the smaller compact types.
