What type of shooting do you do. Has alot to do with the proper head. Kenneth Waller
-----Original Message----- From: Jon M <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Help me find my head (tripod head, that is) Got this old Gitzo "Gilux Reporter" at an estate auction not long ago, and I'd like to get an appropriate head for it. Everyone I've talked to so far seems to insist I should get a ball head. But what kind? I'm on a bit of a budget, so the cheaper the better - but I don't want a piece of crap. Top plate is about 2.75" in diameter. Will use heftier 35mm stuff, possibly MF too. Also, is there any source for replacement rubber grips that go on the threaded collars for the legs and center column? http://jon.beigetower.org/photography/tripod/gitzotripod1.jpg http://jon.beigetower.org/photography/tripod/gitzotripod2.jpg __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
