The unique D4 gp geared head is robust, compact and very easy to operate. Our customers who purchase the D4 often wonder why they didn’t get one sooner!

Compared to other geared heads the D4 offers a significant advantage: the speed of “ball head” style movement for gross positioning, then the locks can be set and the gearing used for final fine precision adjustment. The D4 gp also features geared panning above the central movements so you camera can be panned without messing up the alignment you have dialled in.

ARCA-SWISS D4 gp (geared panning) Geared Head with Classic Quick Release features the classic thumb-screw release knob.
