That was not a consideration for me because I have been looking for
years for a good light weight head. This one does not have quite the
friction control of an ArcaSwiss, but I prefer the easier mobility.
Build quality is very good. I dropped it in the snow the other day,
wiped off easy, no place for the water to accumulate. The ball is more
exposed though, so if you tend to bang your head against the rocks
(ballhead that is) this one is more exposed.
