Just thought I'd comment on it in case anyone is pondering the same head.
Not cheap, but superb. Exceedingly solid, with huge plate area for larger cameras -A good 6 plus inches by about 4+ - BIG. Ergonomically seems really good with smooth movements (with plently of resistance - ie not slippery!) that lock very well with a tiny amount of tighteneing. Attachment screws are great. Comes with both 1/4" and 3/8" which can be positioned as you wish, one or both. For field users of 10x8/5x7 this has to be about perfect, but probably too big for small 5x4 (certainly dwarfs my RSW45).
Simple, solid and beautifully made, smooth, easy, light for its size, but unfortunately £150. Thoroughly recommended. I just hope no gremlins appear in the field!
