Product details

Novoflex MagicBall "Free" Set

The Novoflex MagicBall has revolutionized the world of tripod heads with its exceptional design. Thanks to its inverted housing, photographers can achieve an enormous adjustment range of nearly 240° through the ball. A shift of the camera from landscape to portrait orientation is possible at any time, even without a perfectly aligned tripod. The highlight is the ball that is unleashed from the base housing, which supports all conceivable shooting situations. In combination with the guide plate and support foot of the MB Free Set, it allows for photography with stabilization both directly on the body and on a variety of potential surfaces. Camera pans for video recordings are now also possible without complex rig systems. Consisting of: ball, plate, support foot, MagicBall "Free" housing.

Novoflex MB Free 50 scores with robust construction, good workmanship, great freedom of movement and easy handling. It is a fast head, but not always the most precise, because you do everything freely by eye. Panning around the own axis is possible, but hardly as smooth as with a real panorama axis. The holding force is high, even if not bombproof. MB Free 50 is not cheap.

  • PositiveWorkmanship, handling and performance: all top. The system is very well thought-out and flexible.
  • NegativeThe ball is a little stiff in the bearing shell at the beginning, which may make smooth movements difficult.

Those who value maximum flexibility but at the same time depend on effective camera stabilisation should take a closer look at the Novoflex MagicBall Free 50.
