Are you using a tripod colar ? Or are you mounting the camera body on the tripod ?

I don't know what you mean by 'small' or 'medium'. Small doesnt sound adequate anyway. Have a look at the specs of the tripod and head and see their maximum supporting weight. Use the lens tripod colar. It sounds like you need a better tripod head. * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
