I have 2 ball-heads for sale:
Kirk BH-1 (large one) in well used condition. This has been my staple for probably 5 or 6 years and still works like the day I bought it. It has some scuffs and slightly rounded ends on the QR but for the level of use is in excellent condition. Still made today and costs 350ukp ! Great for LF and for any long lens use on 35mm.

Looking for £150.00 including p&p ono. Can post piccies.
Second is an Acratech GV2

This has been my lightweight alternative for use on a smaller tripod. Still in good condition and much less used. Comfortably handles an Ebony 45S or Nikon D3X/24-70mm. No significant scratches or dents and still locks really solidly. Quality engineering from USA. Looking for £150.00 incl p&p ono
For those interested - reason for change is that I have recently got one of the new Arca D4 geared heads which is lighter than the Kirk and same footprint as the Acratech. Fantastic head that replaces both and is geared to boot.

Dave
