Manfrotto 496RC2 Ball Head

A tripod isn’t much use without a decent head, and if weight or space is an issue, a monopod or lightweight support might be the answer.
Manfrotto‘s latest compact ball head has a beefy 6 kg maximum load rating, and offers really rock-solid support for a 35mm SLR and medium weight lenses.
It lacks handy features such as spirit levels or a pan-only lock, but it does have an adjustable friction damper, which makes fine adjustments a breeze, and the tilt facility stretches 180° instead of just 90°. Perfect for amateurs and pros alike.
