Ball head Rondo-S

The light (15g) ball head Rondo-S moves your SJ4000 quickly into any orientation – so you can capture amazing scenes anywhere.

  • Holds your camera in
    portrait or landscape
  • Rotates, tilts and rolls it
    smoothly & continuously
  • Is stable without screwing
  • Can be used standalone or
    on a bottle / Minipod / tripod

 

The tiny Minipod can be tightened to an ordinary tripod or it can be used standalone.

The versatile Rondo-S fulfills its function as ball head even on any bottle or simply on rough ground: On the one hand it does not roll away or slide through because the center of gravity is ideally positioned. On the other hand it can be reoriented quickly and still remains stable in any position on any rough ground.

The Rondo provides good service also as panoramic head  as long as objects are not overly close in the image. For wonderful video panning the Rondo provides the required smooth guidance.

  • Camera and Rondo: The camera gets inserted vertically down into the Rondo. It sits tight there.
  • Rondo and Minipod: The Rondo rests loose on the Minipod. The center of gravity of the camera is at the center of the spherical bottom of the Rondo. Therefore the Rondo with camera stands stable in every position.
  • Minipod and Tripod: A nut with 1/4″ photo thread allows the tightening of the Minipod to a tripod.
