## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simple. Overbuilt. Perfect.
*by G***K on June 6, 2025*

I've been on the hunt for a tripod head to go with my Seestar Smart Telescope to further facilitate Equatorial mode (object tracking based on latitude and polar alignment), and have gone through several different fluid heads over the past few weeks because I wasn't satisfied with the action of the tile/pan fluid heads, and I just don't like the look of the de facto EQ mounts available. The fluid heads I initially tried did pan and tilt, and while they worked to an extent they just didn't feel stable enough and there was always some locking lash that you had to compensate for after tightening things down. Some of them had really firm springs that returns the head to horizontal and you have to compensate for that when setting up. I suppose that's what's needed for shooting live action, but it just complicated things. I was about to go to a geared head to make things simpler (they're also about at least 3x the price of the DMH-2), when I decided that I only needed a smooth and positive locking tilt head that could support at least 6 lbs reliably (this can get heavier with an added battery pack and other accessories). My telescope just needs to be set up perfectly and left alone to do its thing. It also needed to be compatible with arca-swiss type plates.I looked at this Desmond DMH-2 and a generic DT-02D50, and decided on the Desmond. It had better ratings and reviews, while the DT-02D50 only had one 1-star review. The Desmond was also a bit lower-priced.Robust metal construction, large machined locking knob, no panning base, arca-swiss compatible, no spring return to horizontal, and rated to support 22 lbs. Basically everything I wanted and nothing extra. The plate clamp is secure, the large locking knob is easy to locate by feel, and doesn't take even a full turn to lock.From a design standpoint, the only thing that would make this even more perfect is if the track channel was geared, with a separate locking solution. That way, tilt can be adjusted by the knob, and locked into place using other means. That would really allow you to dial-in your latitude and nail polar alignment fast and easy. It would be a great feature, but not critical for my purposes.My search is over, and this is the one.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bigger than I thought.  And BETTER than I thought!
*by R***N on July 14, 2024*

This is for my Nikon 400/2.8 AF-S II. I have a monopod and the lens came with an arca Swiss standard plate by RRS. Visiting local camera stores, I saw some very nice hardware only to find the head was good for 5.5 pounds or something else that would not do. I’m not excited about spending $400 on a head unit either. So Amazon here I come.First off, this head unit is large. I included my hand in a pic to show off the size of it. I completely expected something about half to 2/3 of the size. So right away I’m very pleased. Second of all, the craftsmanship is equal to anything I have purchased from the big three. It is anodized beautifully, the black color appears very professional, and the attention to detail in the manufacturing process is quite obvious.The important bit is how it hold my lens. I can mount my 400mm and easily lock it from moving at all using the large oversized knob. A slight twist loosens it completely. Someone in the middle allows it to have adjustable resistance so that I can repoint the lens and it stays where I leave it.I will want a tripod next, and I have no trouble at all searching the same brand. It is well worth the price. They could charge 3x what I paid and I would still be happy.The biggest surprise was really the size. It is indeed bigger than I ever expected it to be. For what I paid I had expected something smaller. Would buy from again. I hesitated at first but if so glad I pulled the trigger.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This thing is awesome!
*by A***R on January 11, 2025*

I came across this while looking for a "budget" monopod head and am so glad that I decided to give it a try. This head is well made and works great! I like that the top clamp can be pulled off and spun any way I want, and the bubble level comes off as well. I have big hands so being able to rotate the top and remove the bubble level has given me so much more space for my knuckles when using the tilt knob. Perfect for my R7 and rf100-400, I will definitely be looking into other items made by Desmond Photographic!
