Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. This item surprisingly didn't come with a pan handle. Can you recommend a compatible pan handle?

A: Unfortunately, there are no pan handles compatible for use with the GEEKOTO CT32X Gravity 85 Carbon Fiber Tripod with Ball Head. The GEEKOTO CT32X Gravity 85 Carbon Fiber Tripod comes with a ball head. Ball heads have knobs that allow you to control the pan axis on the head, but ball heads do not use pan handles. If you need a pan handle with your tripod, you would have to purchase a pan/tilt head separately such as the Oben PD-117 3-Way Pan/Tilt Head, B&H # OBPD117, or the Field Optics Research Ultra Low-Profile Pan Head, B&H # FIFPHULP, for your usage needs.
