Category: Tripod Heads

This 405 3-Way, Geared Pan-and-Tilt Head from Manfrotto has a load capacity of 16.5 lb and can be attached to tripods or other support systems that feature a 3/8"-16 mount. It includes an integrated RC4 quick release cam lock and a 410PL Quick Release Plate. RC4 compatible quick release plates such as the 410PL can removed from the head by pulling the cam lock's spring-loaded lever, which also allows the plate to be instantly reattached.

Cameras or accessories that are compatible with a 1/4"-20 or 3/16"-20 mount can be connected to the 410PL Quick Release Plate, which measures 2.5 x 3.3 x 0.5" and has a rubberized, non-slip surface. The head can be rotated 360°, tilted 90° forwards or 30° backwards, as well as 90° sideways for portrait orientation. Each of these three movements function independently of each other and have individual, snap-lock knobs with easy-to-turn, fluted grips. Turning each snap-lock knob allows the corresponding movement to be rapidly adjusted, and once the knob is released, the adjustment is locked into place. An additional, rubberized knob set within each snap-lock knob allows incremental, geared adjustments, which help to ensure that any device mounted to this 405 3-Way, Geared Pan-and-Tilt Head is precisely positioned relative to the subject.

To further promote fast and repeatable device positioning, this 405 3-Way, Geared Pan-and-Tilt Head also includes dedicated angle scales for each movement that are designed for easy visibility.

Customer Reviews (5.0 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Owen E. ★★★★★

I was amazed at how smooth the geared adjustments are for precise framing, and the 16.5 lb capacity handles my heavy telephoto with zero sag.

Ella Z. ★★★★★

This head locks down rock solid for long exposures, and the 16.5 lb capacity gives me plenty of room to work with heavier gear. The geared adjustments are smooth and precise, making fine framing effortless.

Hannah ★★★★★

The geared pan action on this head is buttery smooth and locks down rock solid with no drift, even with my heavy telephoto. Hooking it up to my existing tripod was dead simple with the standard 3/8 thread. Makes precise framing adjustments effortless.
