Sunwayfoto xb-52 or Leofoto lh-55

[lawrence97]

I am looking at purchasing either one of these ball heads. The xb-52 would be the no neck version or a standard LH-55.
Any experience or assistance to make the decision easier would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I went with the XB-52. It claims to have a 135lb rating so hopefully it locks up tight and is smooth.

I have the Leofoto, and it works great BUT, i bought it before i knew that all of their stuff is a RRS direct knock off. If i had to do it all over again, i would support the US company that invented it, not the Chinese people that stole it.
