## Long description

The Manfrotto MH496-Q6 aluminium centre ball head with Top Lock plate is a compact, portable head designed for precise camera positioning.

The head includes an Arca‑Swiss-compatible MSQ6PL sliding plate with Top Lock and three bubble spirit levels to assist with accurate in-camera framing.
