My Way

Well, if you're more than 'just-beginning-and-very-excited' type of photog, you know the drill. You buy the priciest camera you can afford, and it gives you practically nothing. Nuffin, nada.

Ok, ok. I'll slow down. Of course it gave me many things, freedom to think, compose, expose. But All the pictures I got with my beloved f801s, I could have gotten with any PS disposable.

Not that I'd trade =D.

Manfrotto 168 (US: Bogen 3055)

Heavy duty ballhead. Looks like an overkill for my equipment with 70-300 cheap zoom as heaviest & longest lens. Fast-lock plate extends way beyond botton of F-801s.
Lock levers are pretty stiff, and you should develop good techique releasing and locking them. I manage to not skew my composition when locking ballhead, so it's obviously a techique matter. (I don't hold camera, but rotating ballheadplate).
Weight: 0.72kg.
