Just got the new Swarovski Compact Tripod Head (CTH) and I haven't seen much literature out there.

After receiving it, it looked awfully familiar, like I had seen someone using it on insta. After some research it looks like Manfrotto/Gitzo is making that head for swarovski. It's almost identical to the Gitzo 2 way fluid pan head.

I will say the Swaro head seems top notch. Already loving the counter balance feature. It will hold my 95 completely still without even locking it, even at a slight downward angle.

Swaro is asking 469.99 and gitzo is asking 319.00. Very curious to see if anyone is using the gitzo version and can report back on it.

I've attached pictures. First 2 are the swarovski head, 3rd is the gitzo

Back side... Actually looks like the gitzo is a little more refined.

Same weight... Same features in the same location. Swaro looks a little more compact.
