[QUOTE="WhiteLight, post: 170957, member: 9556"] [b]Re: 498 RC2 - Very Disappointed[/b] I do have a focusing rail on the way though.. so not sure if that would make things better on this ball head. I figure the problem here lies with the locking mechanism.. It's too simple & the clamp doesn't lock tight against the QR plate And they claim a max load capacity of 8kg! My D7000 & 105mm (or the 70-300) hardly make up 2 Kgs [/QUOTE]
