Description

Tilt and pivot your camera in three-dimensional space with the Leofoto G4 Pro Geared Head, which combines the advantages of a ball head and a 3D tilt head in one compact system. When both X- and Y-axes are open, one can move the camera freely but, as opposed to a ball head, the X- and Y-axis movements can also be made individually. If one of these axes is fixed, movements can be performed with even more precision.

The design of this head puts the center of rotation of X and Y- tilts in the same place, making the pivoting radius of these movements very small, thus allowing users to maintain perspectives during readjustment. The self-locking shock absorption feature for the swivel function allows for near total compensation of the camera's weight. In addition to manual operation, the G4 Pro also offers the precision of separate gear-driven vertical/horizontal movements when the locking levers are fixed, with quick release clutches for fast, large adjustments.

Another notable feature is the separate 360° panning on the base of the head as well as the geared panning on the clamp. The bottom section allows for camera alignment. Two spirit levels, arranged at 90° angles underneath the upper panorama adjustment, are sufficiently visible to facilitate effective leveling, even from a low viewpoint.

Leofoto G4 Pro

Few companies build a head like the G4, both the flexibility of movement and the locking capacity it has no equal.

Great product, quick shipping

The G4 Pro is an excellent geared head at great value. I do landscape photography and this head really improved my ability to quickly compose a scene. Leofoto shipped quickly (same day).

Nice build and worth the price.

The G4 Pro is a great alternative to Arca-Swiss, especially considering the $1000 savings. It functions very well. To the discerning buyer expecting the gearing to be as smooth as butter, and who has an additional $1000 to burn, go with the Arca. Turning any of the gears is easy and the placement is solid, it’s just not as smooth as I expected. That being said, it’s worth the investment.

Great tripod head for landscape photography

Far more precise that my ball head that this is replacing. This is beautifully built with the highest level of materials and precision manufacturing. I highly recommend it.

I have one request for Leofoto: build a smaller lighter version for today’s Sony mirrorless cameras. I would love that for my lightweight travel tripod head. This is a little heavy for long mountain hiking.

Leofoto G4 Pro Four Way Geared Head

First experience purchasing anything from Leofoto and I have to say I am very pleased with the quality all around. After doing quite a lot of research on geared heads I decided to go with Leofoto. Shipping and packing was great and the quality of the geared head seems very solid and good controlled and smooth movement from all the axes. I have used this for both my heavier Z750 set up as well as my Z8 set up. Use for both landscape and real estate. Highly recommend!
