Light, sturdy,rigid. For my intended use, as a camera mount atop an equatorial star tracker (the superb Fornax Lightrack), this works exceedingly well! The rotating base allows RA adjustment, the first conical hinge give me declination. Once pointed at the desired patch of sky, the 2nd cone allows nearly complete rotation of the camera's FOV. This is far more flexible and convenient than using a ball head, which very often limits the camera's rotational aspect.

This is my second head of this model. My first lasted 8+ years before I lost it. It was as solid as the day I bought it. I wanted this head for a lightweight and inexpensive TRAVEL tripod (Promaster C423W Carbon Fiber). With a little caution, this combo can be trusted with my Canon 7D camera. It's not too top heavy. This head can easily go on just about any heavier tripod and provide rock solid support.

This gem replaced a lot of old stuff that I've had for years. I replaced the left and bottom knobs with hex head cap screws which works better for me. I carry an extra Allen wrench in the RV

This Manfrotto 056 3D junior tripod head is excellent in every way. Especially the price/value for money. No lightweight, but the stability is rock solid, even with a semipro camera with a 400mm lens attached The adjustments lock and release easily and allow huge movements in every direction. There is virtually no "sag" after locking the position The finish is typical Manfrotto,excellent!. I would certainly recommend this tripod head as great value for money.One point though, A good sturdy tripod is essential to get the best from this head!.
This has been my standard head for 5+ years, until my tripod was stolen at the base of the Eiger. I travel extensively and often hide my tripod, so I can be more mobile. With a note saying I'll be Baaack. So I've given up on expensive Gitzos and Foba heads. (I've had 2) This unit is simple and basic, but even for twice the money it can't be beat. It's also relatively compact. I've used it with my Canon 7d with no problems or slippage, even with my 70-200mm lens. After spending hours reviewing various model, I see no reason to buy another model for so much more money.
I'm very happy with this head. It's a great alternative to the similar discontinued 460MG head. I personally like it better. I'm also using the Manfrotto 323 quick release adapter. This is an excellent strong well designed minimalist 3-way head. Perfect for my DSLR landscape needs.
Excellent tripod head. Small, easy to use and secure. I went from this head to a ball head but I'm back using this head. The ball head couldn't hold the camera in a horizontal position (the head didn't move but couldn't tighten the camera enough to say still). This has more contact area between the mounting plate and camera base.
I've been using the original 3025 head for 30 years now. It's solidly built, very simple (which is probably why it's lasted this long), and flexible. One word of caution; be careful when adjusting your camera and make sure the knobs are tight. Once the knobs are loosened, there is no counterweight to prevent the camera from slamming down. Back in '84 or so I put a nice dent in my Canon F-1, by not making sure the knobs were tight. Other than that, this is a well made, easy to use head at a very reasonable price and I continue to use it daily with my 5D MkII.
The super Clamp cannot fit together with junior head. There is no way to attatch the super clamp securly to the junior head. The 056 3-D junior head requires a MANFROTTO tripod top plate, which is equipped with a three set of screws which clamp agains the base of the head for secure locking which is lacking by this kit !!
Bought this to use with a 5D Mk 2 and lens as big as 70-200. It is very solidly built. Doesnt seem to have any problem with the weight. Has three different levers which allow you great flexibility for various angles. Used it last night to photograph the sky without a problem. Id recommend it.
