Alright everyone---I know Christmas isn't even over yet, but I got a little bit o cash for Christmas and would really like to get a Really Right Stuff ballhead.
While shooting in WDW a few weeks ago, I noticed that my cheap ballhead was already getting loose and when I mounted the 80-200 f/2.8 it didn't seem all that steady, so I'd like something better.
That being said, I am LOST. The last ballhead I bought came with my tripod, so I don't even know what I would need.
I've decided on the mid-sized BH-40 ballhead, but can't figure out what clamp, if I need to buy a QR plate or anything additional to make it functional.
If any of you that own RRS ballheads could put together a little package and tell me why I need each item, I would really appreciate it. With as expensive as this stuff is, I'd really hate to buy anything I didn't really need.
Edited to add: Also---will a RRS ballhead mount on any tripod legs, or do I need a compatible pair? I know nothing.
