    I have a Red One camera and a the massive 18-85mm lens (with lens support). Would anyone know which tripods/tripod heads would be good to use with it? Looking to spend between 1-4K.

    Any help will be much appreciated!

    Thanks

    You can spend less than $1K on an ancient O'Connor 50D. It will work just fine, but is obviously missing some of the bells and whistles of the new heads.

    And, yes, that 18-85 is just a total beast of a lens.

    I love my Sachtler 7+7, I do have one for sale in about a week if you are interested. It was just serviced at Transylvania Films, they replaced the spring and fluid.
