[Rollei] tripods

[Ellis Feldman <ellis.feldman >]

I prefer the Linhof's more so than the gitzo's.
The Linhof's have a lever on each leg extension. When you throw the
lever over you have a positive lock.My other Linhof uses knobs which
can tend to lock in freezing weather. I also use a gitzo and it is very
nice.
Over the years I have tried Tiltall, Bogen as well. They are nice
tripods but their usability and quality seem to be in direct proportion
to the monetary investment.
Now I know the Linhof's are expensive but worth every penny. Even their
tripod heads are superior. They have a silkiness and a grip unlike I
have ever seen.
