In my own experience, a fast ball head works for video if the camera isn't heavy. If you can quickly level it (because video needs that horizon) it can work because you can pan with a ball head, but as soon as you want to tilt it's gonna be a bit finicky. On my ball head, I can use an xt4 for video but when I get the xt4 on a rig with battery, cine lens mic handle follow focus, it becomes too heavy for a regular ball head so I use my fluid head.
Thanks ! Which tripod do you have for those tripod head ?
I have Gitzo Systematic Serie 3 and 5, and a traveller series 2
Molto interessante..mi piace assai la wimberley monopod , si può usare anche sul treppiedi senza intoppi per la fotocamera ?
Sì nessun problema sul treppiede
you left out the Benro
Is there a hybrid head that works for both video (fluid) and Photography?
The fluid ones are best for video, but if you don’t need accuracy they can be used for pictures as well
