cohofishing Report post Posted April 15, 2008 hi, I know this subject has been done before, but I was wondering if anyone has any imput on Slik pro 614 CF tripods? I currently am using the Slik Sprint Mini with a Jim White head. This set up works okay with my Leica 10x50's but when I use my Minox spotter...well, I think I can do better. I know a heavier tripod would be more stable, but I'd like to stay light weight. The Slik pro 614 is only 1.9 lbs and supports 6.6 lbs. What do you think?

cohofishing Report post Posted April 15, 2008 Hi, It was a slow day at the railroad and I spent sometime at home on the computor. Did a seach on this forum and found some great info. I really like what I have read on the slik pro 713's and 614's; but I not sure if another lightweight tripod would do much for me. The idea that I like and tried was the rock bag. I set up my Slik Sprint Mini and tied some weight on it (a small rock, maybe 1.5 pounds) Using both the bino's and spotter, I saw improvement, even in today's wind. Since there is aways a rock nearby, this idea makes sense. Thanks, Brent I'm going to go look at the Slik Pro 614cf tomorrow. I'll give a update Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
