[QUOTE="Vixen, post: 343740, member: 21839"] I've got the 190XPROB with an 804RC2 head. OK...it's fairly large and being metal not as light as the carbon. I'm small and not exactly strong and I do not find it any problem to carry in one hand while clambering over rocks, tree stumps etc. I've also used it in a howling wind with no problems. It gets to stand in both salt and fresh water and is continually on the beach. I just pull it all apart every so often and give it a good clean and lubrication. Macro work......I don't use my tripod for anything living that moves. By the time I got set up anything living would be well gone. You might want to invest in a macro slide for your tripod if you are going to use it in the field. Minute adjustments are not something I can do with tripod alone and with macro, you need minute adjustment capability :D [/QUOTE]
