I guess there is something to be said about you get what you pay for. Can't figure why Harry would need it anyway. He's stated that he can hand hold his camera zoomed out to 200mm and show no movement @ 1/60th.. I posted that information for anyone who is considering the off brand accessories. *I have heard others have had similar problems. Thanks for the tip. It looked a little too good to be true. I have read a couple of reviews of the device, though, and the writers of those reviews seems to like it ok. Did you have the "old" version or the new version? There's "off-brand" and then there is "off-brand." I was going to buy a Gitzo tripod but bought a Feisol instead. I'm really pleased with it. I see very slight cosmetic differences between the Gitzo and the Feisol. The ballhead I ordered should arrive this week. I'm not sure there is a "non-off-brand" ballhead. I see Loogy crawled in. There's a perfectly logical and obvious response to his snarky inquiry, but why bother? It's just Loogy.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Are you denying you said such a thing? |
