Manfrotto 520BALLSH is a durable aluminium 75 mm half ball with a short locking handle for mounting a flat-base video head on a tripod with a 75 mm bowl. Its universal 3/8-inch top screw supports Manfrotto video heads, while the shorter design—unlike the standard 520BALL—preserves clearance for ground-level work and also fits the 529B Hi-Hat with the optional 319 adapter.
This aluminium half ball converts a flat-base video head with a 3/8-inch thread for use on tripods with a 75 mm bowl. Its short locking handle preserves clearance on Hi-Hat supports and for low-angle shots.

The exact choice for ground-level work and for the 529B Hi-Hat with the optional 319 adapter.
The standard 75 mm version uses a long ergonomic locking handle. It is another configuration in the same family, not the same product.
The universal 3/8-inch top screw accepts Manfrotto flat-base video heads. Seat the half ball in a 75 mm bowl, set the horizon and secure the position with the short lower handle.
