  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Which first PL Glass should I buy?

With tripods I recommend going at least one size up from your expected maximum weight rating, for instance if you are routinely running a 25-30lb rig then the 1030 series can handle it but only at the end of it's range where it's performance will suffer, you're much better off with a 2060. I use a 2575 for everything except travel, where I use a Ocon DVS, which maxes at 35lbs but I only ever put about 20 on it.
When it comes to tripod heads I think having more capacity is always preferred. Other than the lens very few other accessories directly impact the image quality of the shot like your tripod head.

Yes your right. Thanks Evin.
 
I think I might go for the Miller 55 Head. This should easily take my rig weight (and budget).

I just can't make my mind up if I should go for the Sprinter II CF legs or the HD CF Legs.
I love the idea of the sprinter legs as when operating alone, that easy release system would be a treat but I'm concerned about the twist and stability in the legs VS the HD legs which have a thicker CF leg diameter.
