Default Which ball head?
It's been a while since I've looked at ball heads, but I need a good, heavy-duty head that can be used in the studio with pro cameras. Any suggestions? I will not buy Arca Swiss again.

you want a markins m20.

This M20 comes without the quick release. You can mount a 3rd-party quick release clamp, such as RRS on this head connecting to its 3/8-16 UNC tap shaft.
This high-capacity ball head has an astonishing load-to-weight ratio of 78:1. It takes a load of 45kg (99 lbs) while only weighting 580 grams (1.28 lbs).

buy it here.
