Maverick351 Report post Posted March 8, 2015 Im in the market for a new one. I been considering going a bit cheaper and getting the slik707e but also considered going all out and getting an outdoorsman either pistol grip and possibly pan attachment or simply buying their pan head. I'll be running razor 12x50s. Curious to pros and cons of each as I've yet to ever mess with any of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AZbowhntr Report post Posted March 10, 2015 bhuntin, if you decide to sell your Jim White head let me know. I would be interested in buying it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maverick351 Report post Posted March 10, 2015 Oddly enough I've never messed with the Jim White head. I know it has a ton of fans though. I've been doing research on the Jim White and the Outdoorsman. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost85 Report post Posted March 10, 2015 a lot of people, including myself do not prefer a tripod that with the twist of a handle comes completely loose. i like the manfrotto style that can be adjusted more to just your liking and allow you to move left/right up/down and still maintain control and be able to let your hands off without losing what is in your picture Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHT_MTNMAN Report post Posted March 10, 2015 Outdoorsmans new micro and original panhead are the best IMO...I had Jim white and went to outdoorsmans a few years back and it was the best move I've made... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
