jeffro Report post Posted January 12, 2015 What head do you prefer. Looking at the ph 113v and the 700rc2. Thanks for the advise. I would like to keep it as light as posable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swivelhead Report post Posted February 9, 2015 I've own a number of the PH 113's. Durable and will handle decent weight. Smooth......... not so much, about 90$ worth. I'd recommend you spend more and get better quality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rcdinaz Report post Posted February 9, 2015 Bino's you can go cheap and get away with it, spotter you have to spend some money if you want smooth. I use the Jim White for the bino's and it is awesome but a little on the light side for a spotter. That being said it seems a lot of guy use the 700, I was thinking about getting one as well to replace my bogen trigger grip. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bonecollector Report post Posted February 9, 2015 I use a Manfrotto MVH500 its a little on the heavy side and a little bulky but its rock solid and very smooth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rclouse79 Report post Posted February 9, 2015 I have used a 700rc2 for years and it has always done the job. I am sure there are better options out there, but I don't want to try them or I might have to buy a new one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost85 Report post Posted February 9, 2015 700rc2. great price and very light weight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rcdinaz Report post Posted February 10, 2015 You guys are killing me! I was looking at the 700 but checked out the 500 and 502. Are they worth the extra weight and $$$? Still cheaper than the Outdoorsman which I checked out, it is awesome but over $300... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kaffer62 Report post Posted February 11, 2015 I picked up an outdoorsmans pan head from a private seller for a pretty good deal. I love that pandhead. I had the 128rc before hand which worked great as well. Just a little heavier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
