Actually... not to disagree with William, I love ball heads... the Bogen
tripod I usually use has the legs that can extend at different angles and of
course variable length. With a ball head I don't care that my tripod is
perfectly level... I waste no time with that anymore... I get it close and
then adjust in any direction using the ball head. I have the grip ball
heads which makes the adjustment a one handed operation.

This is much more information than we needed.

Shooting a landscape with an SLR on a tripod is useful for the same
reason
as putting any camera on a tripod... stability... a more deliberate
composition... works especialy well with a ballhead IMO.
I hate ball heads.......
Maybe it's because my own head looks like one.........
