Acratech announces the launch of The Acratech GXP Ball-head for Photographers
New Acratech GXP Ball-Heads from Acratech, Pomona, California USA
Oct 11, 2019 – Acratech has long been recognized as a leader in innovative, high-quality tripod heads and camera support. The GP Ball-Head even won DP Reviews coveted “Top Pick”. Now Acratech is moving competitively forward with their new GXP Ball-Head. The GXP has a wide range of significant new features and it continues the tradition of Acratech’s world-class quality.
The new GXP is designed for the professional and advanced amateur photographer who desires the strongest, lightest, most rugged and feature packed tripod head possible.
STRENGTH TO WEIGHT RATIO
The new GXP Ball-Heads hold an impressive 50lbs (22kg) and weighs only 1lb (.45kg) that is an amazing 50:1 load ratio.
SMOOTH PRECISION TENSION CONTROL
The new extra-fine tension control allows you to dial in the perfect amount of friction on the ball for maximum camera control and smooth camera movements.
OVERSIZED BALL LOCK KNOB
The large easy to tighten, high torque knob is easy to tighten for maximum holding power, even with heavy winter gloves on.
FAST AND SAFE QUICK RELEASE SYSTEM
The new GXP is available with our new locking lever clamp that is loaded with new safety features and it quickly and easily locks in Arca-Swiss style quick release plates. The level on the quick release clamp is easily visible even with your attached to the clamp
UNIQUE ZERO POINTER
When shooting stitched panoramic images you will often need to return to the starting point of your first shot of your sequence. With our unique zero pointer it is always quick and easy to set a zero point and return right back to it.
FORM FOLLOWS FUNCTION DESIGN
The GXP’s beautiful black anodized aircraft-grade aluminum body and sculpted design is based on the “less is more” concept removing all of the excess material for the most rigid and light-weight design possible.
UNIQUE ACRATECH FEATURES
The GXP carries on the tradition of the the Acratech GP series Ball-Heads with ability to function as Ball-Head, a Gimbal-Head and as a Panoramic-head. It is like getting 3 pieces of equipment all wrapped up in one beautiful and light-weight unit. The patented ‘Open Ball Design’ allows dirt and moisture to fall through instead of getting trapped inside like it would with a conventional ball-head.
