Figured you guys would want to see this. Recently got a Leofoto SA-324CL tripod with the MA-30 ballhead. A 15% off code makes it $424 with tax and shipping included from the Leofoto website.
This is a direct reproduction of an Anvil-30/TFCT. I used an Anvil extensively the day before I used this head extensively, and there’s really not a functional difference (other than the knob vs. lever on the clamp, obviously). Time will tell regarding durability, but this is not a “Chinese POS”.
The tripod is of typical good Leofoto quality. Leg locks lock/unlock with less than 1/4 turn.
Disassembly of the MA-30 head proves to show an identical build to the Anvil.
Looks like the MA-30 head will fit in TFCT legs, and vice versa, but I don’t have either of those things to verify.
I’m sure there will be plenty of hate, but this thing rocks. I’m not sure what else to say about it, other than it’s well worth the price.
