Disclosed is a ball head for a camera tripod. The movement of the ball head is finely adjusted in front, rear, left, and right directions through mechanical manipulation. Since a conventional ball head is mounted with a ball on a tripod, after a user releases the ball head from the pressure and freely adjusts the ball head in front, rear, left, and right directions by a hand, the user fastens a knob of fixing the ball to press the ball so that a lower plate of supporting the ball tightens the ball to fix the ball. Such a conventional ball head has disadvantages in that the user has to release the pressure applied to the ball by unfastening the knob and then finely adjust a photographing angle to a desired degree by using the hand when the repeated fine adjustment of the photographing angle is required in a state that the heavy telescope lens or photographing appliances is mounted on the tripod after the photographing angle has been primarily adjusted by the hand of the user. The accurate adjustment to a desired photographing angle is significantly difficult due to the heavy weight of the telephoto lens or the photographing appliances. The angle adjustment is repeatedly achieved through mechanical manipulation.
