The Arca Swiss B2 Monoball is truly a MONSTER! I use a very heavy 4x5 setup with a scanning back for high magnification macro and micro work. I have tried many tripod heads over the years and just recently I was able to get my hands on this beauty. It is twice the size (or more!) of a B1 or a Z series Monoball, and it holds the camera at any angle absolutely rock solid, no creep, no shake, no movement at all. The exposures with a scanning back are not measured in seconds, rather in minutes, on top of that, high magnification macro is absurdly demanding when it comes to camera movement. So far, of all, the heads I have tried, this is by fay my favorite, I use it every day and will probably continue to do so for a long time.

Rock solid tripod head, incredibly well made. I opted for this rather than the Arch Cube because of concerns about sand getting into the gears of the Cube. Adjustments for leveling 4x5 camera are excellent. I level the head first using the built in levels, then install the camera.
