Hi Petja, The 055 support will be fine for what you intend. I use it with 1v + booster, 70-200/2.8, 300/2.8IS etc, and it has been excellent. The "Nat" will be green, I use the 055PRO in black. I would have another look at the small ball-head you selected though as I think it might be too light for your application. Try the 308RC which works fine with the above gear and is relatively cheap, or the 468RC if you have a bigger budget.
