Different Kinds of Tripod Heads

What do you need in a tripod head for photography? There are a few different varieties available, which we help define below.

• Fluid: A fluid head has a chamber of sealed fluid that is designed to enable smooth movements while dampening vibrations. This type of head is often sought after by videographers who want the ability to pan smoothly but are also useful to photographers.
• Ball: As the name suggests, a ball head gets its movement capability thanks to the ball used in its design. This tripod head typically gives 360 degrees of movement, but certain products may have limits.
• Pistol Grip: A pistol grip head is a different kind of ball head that has a handle the photographer can squeeze in order to reposition the camera. This tripod head usually has the same movement as the ball head.
