I'm looking into ball head tripod mounts. The cheaper ones don't have "tension control". If I get one without tension control, when I loosen the ball to change position, does head come completely loose and the camera just flops around? That seems a bit dangerous if you have on a heavy lens the whole shebang could fall down. There's also the small incremental adjustments you'll need to make. I've never played around with ball heads, but I'm guessing that tension control is probably a must, and well worth the extra money. Your Thoughts? Thanks, Tom Beard
