Sako300 Report post Posted March 17, 2019 700c2 Or 128 Manfrotto! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sako300 Report post Posted March 17, 2019 Possibly will be using btx on 85. So one head that will cover binos and btx/stx that isn’t super heavy and will last years of use. Thanks guys Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost85 Report post Posted March 17, 2019 Save your money and get a manfrotto 700rc2. I think they’re better, as do a lot of people, and they’re under $100 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HuntHarder Report post Posted March 17, 2019 I will say different. I have owned the Jim White, 128, 700rc2, Outdoorsman micro and The outdoorsman. I know only use the 128 on my close to the truck set up and The Outdoorsman on my pack in set up. Of the 5 heads, I thought the 700rc2 was the worst by far. Just my opinion, go to the outdoorsman and compare the heads for yourself. Everyone has their likes and dislikes. I rank. 1. 128 but it's heavy 2.Outdoorsman 3. Jim White 4 Micro pan head 5 700rc2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bonecollector Report post Posted March 17, 2019 I use the manfrotto mvh500, its a little bulky and heavy but its super smooth. Im looking into getting the promaster cine. Its a fluid head and will handle the 85 just fine. I didnt like the outdoorsmans with a spotter.
