I, too, use the Bogen tabletop tripod and extension. I've used the legs (part 3007) as a handle for my rangefinder. Anytime I need it as a tripod, I simply unfold the legs. I've just replaced the ballhead with the Bogen 3232 monopod head, a simple affair that lets you quickly pivot between horizontal and vertical shots. Alternatively, you can buy the 3007 legs and fit it with a more substantial ballhead.
My 3007 legs are new. My first set got stuck in the ballhead, and two legs snapped off when I tried to force the head off by twisting the legs. A replacement set was just $14. "Maris V.
