Very sturdy, compaitability issue with RRS BH-55 Ballhead Review by Jeremy Carroll

Star

I chose the 3472 because I wanted a sturdier tripod for work not too far from my car, yet light enough I would still strap to my camera pack and walk a mile or two. This tripod is a beast and surprisingly light for its size. The base and leg diameter are very large. One of my first uses was a 6 minute long exposure over a bay with a stiff wind blowing into my face. The image remained sharp due to the stability of this tripod.

One issue to be aware of if you pair it with the RRS BH-55 Lever Release Style ball head: The lever will interfere with the FEISOL base when dropping the camera into the drop notch. This will not allow the camera to tilt the full 90 degrees to take a "portrait" format. My solution is to purchase a FEISOL 'L' bracket. Another would be to purchase a ball head with a screw knob rather than lever-release.

Best Tripod Ever Review by Martin Dee

I've used a Gitzo and Manfrottos all my life. This Feisol is by far the best tripod I've ever owned and used. You are not going to find a better tripod at this price range.
