[QUOTE="sl60, post: 712075, member: 17360"] My old cheap pan and tilt tripod wore out so I bought an Alta Pro ball head and don't really like it. I like to shoot forest interiors, taking multiple shots in succession up the length of trees and it's a pain to keep unscrewing and screwing the adjustment knob with every move, whereas the pan and tilt was a breeze. I suppose I can sell the Vanguard because it's barely used and buy a pan and tilt, but is there a way to convert a ball head to pan and tilt? I looked at some pistol grips on YouTube but they seem a little dicey to me and good ones are expensive. Is there a reasonable (under $100) pan and tilt available that's reliable? I've looked at reviews for some cheaper ones and it seems like there are a lot of problems. [/QUOTE]
