I have one from them and it's a very good " alternative model "

It even takes Manfrotto plates so must be similar LOL

It carries my 40D and I did put my Tamron 70 - 300 on it before I sold the lens

Looks like the same as I've got! In which case it's a no-name joystick ballhead. Use it, very successfully, for wide angle landscapes and macro
