A head is used to attach a camera to the tripod. There is no perfect camera head, but you can not do without one. There are a variety of heads that you can use as per your need and convenience. Pan-tilt head, gimbal head, and ball heads are a few types of camera heads.
In the simplest of words, a tripod ball head mounts is a metal ball with a stem that attaches your camera to the mount. A high-quality ball-head camera mount improves your shooting by allowing adjustments to angles and positions with the turn of one knob.
Determining which Tripod with Ball Head You Need
The best tripod ball heads are a little expensive but worth the extra money. They offer great stability and movement. They are simple to use and easily portable.
The most important factor in determining what you will need is the load-bearing capacity:
Light duty Tripod with ball heads
A compact and light-weighted tripod ball head for shooting will meet your needs if you plan on carrying them around all day. But, make sure you buy the light-weighted ball heads from good brands. Using a cheap shooting tripod ball head may result in your entire camera tumbling down in no time.
Medium duty Tripod with ball heads
The medium-duty range has the widest selection of ball heads.
When you mount a full-frame body, you might want to make sure that the head and the legs of the tripod are able to take the weight. DSLR ball head mounts are stiffer and stronger than the regular tripod ball mount.
Heavy-duty Tripod with ball heads
Many of the photographers who use the telephoto lens use a gimbal head to do so. Although, the ones who do use a ball head use heavy-duty ball head mounts. This allows them to use the same ball head for a different lens saving them the hassle of changing mounts. The best tripod ball heads in this classification offer precision, stability, and ease.
A quality ball coating and socket lining can solve the issue of jerky movements and troubles with framing. Locking knobs that are not grippy can result in unwanted camera movement. Rubber knob coatings and lever design can really help to give you a much better grip and control.

This is by no means an exhaustive list, you can do your research and purchase the one that fits your budget.
