[QUOTE="WhiteLight, post: 173802, member: 9556"] My advice - don't spend less on the tripod or ball head. Especially your ball head. I got the Manfrotto 055xprob & 498RC2 I couldn't be happier with the tripod... it is sturdy, well made & assist in any situation at any height. At the same time i couldn't be more disappointed with the ball head. Mind you, it's not 'cheap' per se, but it is definitely lesser than an Arca Swiss or something like that.. The rating of the ball head is 7kgs, but trust me it starts sagging at even 2kgs.. The problem lies with the QR plate which doesn't have a proper locking system so there is a lot of play. So choose well [/QUOTE]
