The Manfrotto 438 Ball Camera Leveller makes it quick to set a level horizon on a tripod without an integrated levelling mechanism. It fits between the tripod and head, where its smooth ±5° adjustment helps position a camera or video head precisely on uneven ground. Its aluminium construction, built-in bubble level and 15 kg safety payload make it a practical foundation for stable photo and video setups.

Quick setup levelling
A level horizon without readjusting tripod legs
The 438 mounts between the tripod and head. Its ±5° tilt range and built-in bubble level let you level a shot quickly, without spending time readjusting individual tripod legs.
10° total range
Smooth adjustment from −5° to +5° provides the range needed for accurate horizon levelling.
For rigs up to 15 kg
A 15 kg safety payload supports a camera or video head in a professional setup.
Aluminium and bubble level
The robust aluminium construction and one bubble level combine durability with an immediate visual reference.
