Ok, then thats what you go for. and yes it does fill the roll of a tripod. but if one were in the market of spending for in a range again i am looking for maximum versatility especially at those prices.
actually RRS started out making only plates for AS heads back in 1990. it was a ownership changeover about 2002 and a few more years that then brought about their own ball head. and they were actually real late to the gimbal making party.
i don\'t doubt that the the Algonquin is a well made product. maybe i just expected more from the relatively inspired manufacturer Jobu is. and i still think/feel this is more a working prototype. it is a shame they won\'t be showing at Photo Plus at the end of this month in NYC.
