No lever locks, but the Feisol ball heads have pretty large knobs. I'm
using a CB50D (load capacity 41lb) on my small tripod and their CB70D
(rated to 84 Lbs) on my large tripod.
Manfrotto ball heads made me swear off that type of head for a couple of
decades. They are, from the few different ones I tried, crap. The Feisol
ones are pretty good.

I'm looking to replace my old Bogen Manfrotto Grip Action ball head
(3265). The ideal would be a ball head with a load capacity of at least
13 lb (the max that the legs it will be mounted on), panning base, lever
based lock for the ball head (I find knobs to be too fiddly, especially
wen wearing gloves), arca swiss plate system and reasonably light weight.
It seems that wanting a lever vs knob knocks out a lot of heads.
Manfrotto has a lot of lever models but they do not use arca swiss
plates. Really Right Stuff has a few but they are 2x-3x the cost of
other brands. There is an inexpensive "Vanguard" brand that meets all of
my requirements, but its a brand I never heard of and is very
inexpensive, so I have doubts....
Any thoughts?
