AZHUNTER05 Report post Posted April 27, 2013 I recently bought a manfrotto pistol head, but it won't work with my current tripod. Does anyone have any good recommendations for a tripod that would be compatible with this head? I don't want to spend to much on a new tripod, something around a $100. If anyone has a used one they want to sell let me know. Thx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hornhunter247 Report post Posted April 27, 2013 Get on cameralandny.com they have the promaster 423 on sale for $99, I love mine! They give you a cheap head with it for free. But I just ordered a manfrotto head for it. Carbon fiber and light weight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

azslim Report post Posted April 28, 2013 probably just need the 1/4" x 20 thread adapter, cost you a couple bucks at most Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AZHUNTER05 Report post Posted April 28, 2013 Ya, I have a vanguard but you can remove the head on the one I have. I'm going to try and get a adapter for it, but I still won't be able to use my manfrotto head with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ghosthunter Report post Posted April 29, 2013 Slik 330proez, they are strictly a tripod manufacturer. I found this one to be really light for not being carbon fiber. The head that comes with this one is really well made as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AZHUNTER05 Report post Posted April 29, 2013 Ghost hunter will the slik tripod you suggested be compatible with this head? Also does the slik tripod have a removable head?

Chris Report post Posted May 5, 2013 Ya, I have a vanguard but you can remove the head on the one I have. I'm going to try and get a adapter for it, but I still won't be able to use my manfrotto head with it. Why is that? If it has the 1/4x20, then your fine. Do you have pics of your problem?
