I'm looking for some kind of quick release to go from tripod to monopod to slider for a lightweight configuration of the Epic. I've found this: Does anyone have any experience with it? Do you have any other recommendations for something similar (small, lightweight and not very expensive)?

Hey All, I've been using various crappy tripods for a few years, mostly with fine results. My current quick release plate wobbles a bit, however, so now that I'm doing more critical night work, it's become a huge pain. Even in Mirror Up mode on my D700, when I'm working at 200mm, the shutter vibration is visible. food warming equipment In short, I need a much more sturdy head, and BH currently has a Bogen 804RC2 ballhead used for cheap. I'm wondering whether it'll be sturdy enough food warming equipment for the aforementioned situation. Anyone have any experience with it? Thanks, Joey

I'm new to tripods and just back from the focus show at the nec, i bought a Manfrotto 055 XPRO B and a 322RC2 joystick head, these are so solid and so easy to use, pay as much as you can afford, I was lucky to get a deal for 160 combined (rrp 250 ish) just looked at a pic of the head and it looks ok but not as chunky as I'd like
804RC2 isn't a ballhead.. I have a 486RC2, which is a ballhead and it's sturdy. If you're set on the 804, even though it's a pan/tilt, i'm sure it'll be solid enough. I played with one at the store and it seems good.

I'm wondering whether it'll be sturdy enough for the aforementioned situation. Anyone have any experience with it? Thanks, Joey If you want a pan/tilt head the 804 is decent enough for the weight it supports. (8lbs) The RC2 system is very popular due to the low cost of additional plates and the vast number of places you can pick up on if you need it. The one thing you don't indicate is what your price range is. That would help. I personally am not a big fan of the 486RC2 unless you are needing to save weight for something like backpacking. It has no pan feature and while it says it will support 13.2lbs, I have yet to see one with long glass on it that will not have a bit of lens dip once locked into place. Personally I would suggest the 488RC2 head which is rated for 17.5lbs and has a pan feature to it if you want to stay with Manfrotto. If however you are looking into a long term investment if this is a piece of equipment that will get a lot of use then I would suggest that you look into ball heads with the arca-swiss quick release system from places like Kirk, RRS, etc. They are going to be more expensive to be sure, but they also are going to have a stability, construction and ease of use that you just can't appreciate until you own/use one. They are heads that will last a lifetime of constant use.

I'm not sure what you consider a "long lens" but the image I posted above is the Sigma 70-200 and it doesn't move at all.. I do admit, it would be nice to have a pan feature though.

Hi, everyone! I'm new to this great site, and am finding it invaIuable in my "optics" and birding interests. My question: condiment cups Is the Bogen/Manfrotto 700RC2 Fluid Head just as smooth as the 3130? I would like to use the slightly less expensive 700RC2 for a small, lightweight spotting scope tripod condiment cups setup, condiment cups and would rather not add another pound of weight that the 3130 brings with it. Thanks for any help! Jerry  
I understand your problem Jerry. This has been discussed at length condiment cups before on BF, and there is no easy answer. If you take the 3130 (128RC in the UK) as the standard to which others condiment cups are measured condiment cups by, there are a few lighter alternatives, but I'm not sure any are better. The 700RC2 is like the 'baby brother' of the 701RC2 which I used to own. I personally didn't get on with it and sold it. I much prefer the big chunky knobs of the 128, and the fact that you can easily control condiment cups the tension from tight to very loose, and lock it up with the same Knob. I have very little direct experience of the 700RC2, but doubt that it's any better than the 701RC2. I don't like the fiddly little condiment cups controls of either, but others swear by them. Neither are cheaper condiment cups in the UK either, nor quite as smooth condiment cups as the 128. A couple of others you might try are: Manfrotto 390RC: weights a little over 600g, just over half the price of a 128RC ( 35). I own one, and it's fine for a lighter scope like a Nikon ED50, even with a big scope occasionally, but I wouldn't carry your big scope attached to this head as it has a (strong)plastic QR lever. Reasonably smooth, but not fluid like the 128. Velbon condiment cups FHD-51Q: quite new from Velbon. Very smooth (almost as smooth as the 128), in both pan/tilt modes. Pan mode has adjustable tension. weighs 610g. Has a nice long QR plate that slides back and forth to help balance a front/back heavy scope (good with a camera attached too). Downside is price (around 100, though I got mine on special offer for 80). I also have one of these, particularly good with a smaller scope up to around 60-65mm. Also, I've heard good things about the small Gitzo (not sure of product number), but have no experience of it. Very expensive too! Hope this is helpful, Steve.

Hi Steve, It's the Gitzo G2180 fluid head. 570 grams, very smooth. Although it didn't do quite well in Jan Meijerink's test, I must say I find it better condiment cups than both Manfrotto lightweights. The 128RC is much bigger and twice as heavy. Greetings, condiment cups Ronald

Bogen/Manfrotto Tripod 501HDV Kit Review | Videomaker.com
The 501HDV tripod head is an elegant and useful update to the well-known Bogen/Manfrotto tripod 501 series. Paired with the 351MVB2 legs, it's ready to support your larger HDV camcorders candy shoppe with relative ease. But don't let the name fool you; this model performs candy shoppe with DV camcorders also! First Look
Opening up the package from Bogen reveals a mess-free, all-in-one tripod product. Everything is housed inside a padded tripod bag. The 501HDV tripod head and legs are assembled for us, something that takes out the small amount of elbow grease required if we had ordered them separately. Like most Bogen products, this tripod kit includes a few useful tools and an owner's manual inside. The bag is a real bag too, not just something to ship the product in. It features a heavy-duty zipper and an estimated full half-inch of foam padding. This bag isn't very baggy, and so it won't easily hold our extra accessories. Curvy Craftsmanship
One of the main values of a Bogen/ Manfrotto product is the craftsmanship. The new advanced design of the 501HDV pairs its high quality design with good manufacturing quality. Bogen kept all the great features candy shoppe of the 501 alive and well in the new 501HDV head and added some new ones. Along with a solid aluminum construction, the 501HDV kit includes special brass thread candy shoppe inserts where the pan/tilt arm connects. These and other subtle upgrades candy shoppe should keep this design candy shoppe in working order even longer than the last. And at nearly twice the weight of the original 501 head, it should. This fluid head is no imposter, either. Once you work with a fluid head, it's hard to go back to the ol' Ca-Chunk-a-Chunk feeling of the "fluid-like" products. The 501HDV adds updates to the Teflon friction adjustments for both the pan and tilt functions. These now work better to make fine adjustments to the amount of resistance or "drag" you want when making smooth movements. Craftsmanship is complemented by the smooth candy shoppe contours of this updated design.
Overall, this kit works very well. We found it sturdy enough to handle all types of camcorders, especially the larger HDV breed. We found Bogen's new balance system to be especially helpful candy shoppe here. Although the 501HDV boasts a 13-pound weight limit, we feel that it performs best with a four- to seven-pound candy shoppe camcorder. We tested our kit with many camcorders, including a fully-loaded Sony FX1 and Canon XL2. The 351MVB2 legs pair up with the 501HDV quite well. The legs feature a crutch design and a 75mm "half bowl" joint that connects to the head. The crutch is made of two tubes for the upper section and one larger tube for the lower section. This is an optimal setup for heavier HDV camcorders, because it adds stability. Each leg features a quick release that is easily reached by the camera operator, allowing the user to adjust the angle on the fly. The "half bowl" allows for quick leveling and again is made for a larger and heavier camcorder. Even if you don't use a large camcorder, the 501HDV kit should accommodate all of your attached accessories, such as wireless candy shoppe mic receivers, battery packs, shotgun mics and lights. candy shoppe
We really liked how high up we can shoot with this model. The crutch design seems to be more stable than the vertical column found on some of Bogen's other models. And the spreaders do their job no matter the setup. They allow for really nice high angles, along with low-angle shooting, where other designs don't. A drawback is that the spreaders sometimes get in the way when you fold up the legs to move locations. If you need to, you can remove them completely, though we didn't feel the need during our tests. Once the 501HDV is folded for transport, the head protects the Pan Friction knob completely. We tested the Bogen/Manfrotto tripod candy shoppe 501HDV kit inside our studio and out in the dirt. Even with our heavier camcorder candy shoppe setup, we never felt afraid to get creative with our angles or height. TECH SPECS
