Hi,
Thanks to all who responded.
Let me correct an error I made in the part numbers in my first message,
because of this silly numbering difference between Manfrotto and Bogen...
Tripod: Bogen 3001Pro (Manfrotto 190Pro) This is a New Model according to
Manfrotto. I think it's probably an "improvement" to the original...
ProBall: Bogen 3413 (Manfrotto 308)
Instead of the Manfrotto QR (308RC or 3413QR) and plates, I would get the
Kirk QR-1, with Kirk plates. They seem better made. Is this a good idea?
