Vanguard's PH-36S and PH-38S 3-way pan heads boast an array of user-friendly features for easy and accurate panning, whether you're shooting photo or video (or locking in optics). The top handle rotates around in 90° segments, allowing you to select the most comfortable position for the shot – which also makes it ideal for both left- and right-handed photographers. A textured handle design offers a better grip and increased slip resistance, and easy push-button and twist operations give you fast, smooth movements. An extendable handle folds down easily for packing when the work is do.
