I do a review of the platyball after two years of use in landscape photography.
Following an initial video about the platyball ( • Platyball for Landscap... ) I decide to update my thoughts. This is after over two years of use out in the field.

Glad to hear you are happy with the Platyball. I have no use for it, but like I told you on Fb, I love my Platypod. It is a little gadget that is always with me.

I understand that some equipment appeals to one person and someone else cannot see the point. I am pleased with it and would recommend it but realise the other people may not like it as much as me.

Compared to a normal ballhead the two button approach is awfully slow and you lack any feedback how loose or tight it is at any moment. On both the UniqBall and the Novoflex Magicball tightening and loosening the ballhead takes a fraction of a second and you know how well you tightened it because of the force you have to exert to do so...

Karl thank you for your comment and feed back. There is feed back that the bullhead is getting tighter because the tighter it gets the button gets harder to press.

@@keswicklimeyphotography But still it takes several seconds to lock it down compared to a normal ballhead where it is just a turn of the hand... It may not matter for landscape but for my macro photography it does. I currently use a Novoflex Magicball ballhead on a wooden Berlebach Mini L tripod which gives me freedom to position my camera at between 2-70cm height with great stability, especially when the ground is uneven or slanted (like hillsides usually are) I don't think either the Platypod nor that head would be a good choice for me...
