Re: [Rollei] What's your favourite tripod?

[dshea]

Dennis,
I primarily use a Sachtler Video 10 and Video 14II, both have fluid heads.
For me, it's all "pros" and no "cons," it is equipment that I have been
extremely pleased with. Occasionally I will also use a Leitz Tiltall and a
Linhof that is about the same size as the Sachtlers, the main difference
being that it has a rather unique head on it. In the Cafes around here
folks argue endlessly about rifle calibers; I believe that the same is
true in regards to tripods among photographers, but I am convinced to err
on the side of overkill -- bigger, stronger, sturdier is better. I'm not
at all familiar with the offerings from Bogen, Manfrotto, and Gitzo, but
it seems as though many people use them -- they might also be worth
checking into.

Cheers,

Doug
