Travel Tripod (Part 2) Acratech: GV2 ball-head, Leveling base, GPss ball-head (08:48)
This video is Part 2 of 4 videos sharing my odyssey in finding a strong, lightweight, compact tripod for hiking and traveling. I eventually ended up with the Really Right Stuff TQC-14 (see Part 4). I demonstrate the Acratech GV-2 ball-head mounted on their leveling base, and the lightweight GPss (reversible!) pan ball-head. I end up purchasing the Arca Swiss PO panning ball-head (See Part 3). This head is designed so the panning is done above the ball, therefore, making accurate stitching possible.

  1. Fits Its Purpose to a T 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 27th Oct 2020

    I purchased the smaller leveling base to fit along with my RRS series 1 tripod and the Acratech Pano Head. These two items (leveling base and pano head) together are perfect for my traveling and hiking needs. And together make single row panos a breeze.

  2. A Handy Accessory 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 9th Sep 2018

    This really comes in handy when shooting outdoors. Many times the ground is uneven and it's a pain to adjust the tripod legs for small leveling adjustments. With this, you try to get close when you set up the tripod and then make the fine adjustments with the leveling base.
    It's quick and easy to use. I have two tripods and I keep one of these on each of them.

  3. I consider this essential 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 10th Nov 2017

    First of all this is light, high quality, and effective. I have used the Acratech Leveling base for years, and it is essential to my work flow. I primarily do Landscape Astrophotography and use a tripod and the Acratech Leveling base for every photo at night. For single frame acquisitions I level the ball head using the Leveling Base and then take a photo and recompose. Since you cannot see through the viewfinder at night you have to take a photo, look at it and recompose. Having the head leveled makes recomposition vastly easier and faster in the dark, with less composition mistakes. Usually recomposing just means rotating the head a few degrees once the head is leveled. For panoramas it is essential and I use it for every panorama, and I do panos routinely. Using this leveling base and lots of overlap virtually every pano I do stitches easily in Lightroom or Photoshop. If you want to see photos using this Leveling Head and an Acratech GP Ballhead go to lightcrafter.com and check out the photos. Virtually every photo on the page was taken with the leveling head (and bullhead).

  4. Quick leveling for Gitzo tripod 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 17th Mar 2016

    The leveling base proved to be very easy to level with the Gitzo tripod. After extending the legs of the tripod getting that fine tuned level is easy to adjust along with the Acratech Ball Head. Picked it up for doing panarama photography and find that it is great for all around photography. The unit is solid and the large knob is easy to use and adjust even in very cold weather. Do recommend the leveling base to go along with the Acratech Ball Head.
