Tripods head type?

Recommended Posts

Outdoorsman's or Jim white. Or go crazy and talk to RRS.  I have probably tried at least a dozen. Manfrotto befree or the benro are good less expensive options. Jim White and outdoorsman, we're made for hunting not camera equip. I have both and a few others all using Arca plates and adapters which greatly simplifies everything. There are some very good ball heads also but you have to get the larger versions, RRS knockoffs, to have a solid platform. Pistol grips have too much wiggle for me but others love them. My manfrotto was terrible so I would only look at outdoorsman.

Video style fluid head that has independent pan and tilt tensioning. I ran the Benro s2 for a couple of years and then switched to a Manfrotto 128 RC2 when I got a spotter. IMO ball heads are worthless and a pistol grip is just a fast adjusting ball head.
