Hey Folks,
I'm ready to upgrade my tripod head to something that handles the Pentax 67
effectively. Currently, I have the Bogen 3262QR and 3030. Both work fine
when in the horizontal position. When I shoot verticals, I run into problems
with the camera shifting. The little plates that go with the 3262 and 3030
just don't hold tightly enough and the camera winds up rotating downwards
(especially when I have the 135 Macro with extension tubes). Okay, I know
the photo.net geeks all recommend the Arca Swiss head and Really Right Stuff
plate combo. Yes, it's is an awesome way to go but that's out of my price
range.
I'm considering the Bogen 3055 (heavy duty ball head) or 3275 (geared head).
Will these work okay when shooting verticals? Any other recomendations? I'm
open to other brands as long as it fits onto the Bogen 3401 (I hope I don't
have to upgrade that as well!!!!).
TIA,
Mark
