At the beginning stood the idea to build ball heads which do justice to the demands of the professional photograph (F). To reach optimum image quality, the additional light (L) which must be put precisely is required in many situations.

This demanding and variable area of application makes high demands and varied knowledge in the precision mechanics to the products. In 1993 the family-controlled company FLM was founded and developed with the help of our customers - the photographer - the first ball joint - series. By the narrow contact with photographers took place a many years', continuous advancement of the products which has led to the unique qualities and functions of the newest "Series II" generation.
