Product Description
What happens when you want a precise, fast ball head, but you can't do without the convenience of a geared head? You develop the p0 hybrid, a ball head with gear function, which, like all gear heads from Arca Swiss, can be adjusted accurately and precisely. It is perfect for applications that require fast but precise adjustments, such as architectural, table-top, macro and panoramic photography.
The p0 hybrid was presented at Photokina 2016.In addition to the ball head adjustment that is available on all heads of the P-series, the hybrid version also enables fine adjustment via gear.
How to proceed:The p0 is easily opened with the grooved locking ring running all around. As with all arca-swiss ball heads, the ball here is also aspherical.This means that as soon as the camera is tilted, the opposing forces in the head become stronger (depending on the inclination, the opposing forces are always greater).The camera is aligned approximately, then fixed with the locking ring.The fine adjustment is now carried out using the two fine drives.The self-locking gear adjustment can be continuously adjusted by up to 10 °. There are 2 gear units that are arranged at right angles (x + y axis) to each other.
For the first time, arca-swiss has incorporated 4 locking points into the panorama swivel. This ensures that the fine adjustment of the gear can be carried out at a neat 90 ° angle.As you can see in our comparison picture, the p0 hybrid is only 3cm higher than the "normal p0". The difference in weight is only 200g.Every photographer who wants to level his camera quickly and very safely (architecture, landscape, panorama) has a new, excellent option.
