Opinion:I bought this head by finding a super offer on the bay (29th), replacing the head arrived along with the purchased Rollei stand (which could be fine for a mobile phone or a compact, but with the reflex was decidedly unstable). Massive compared to the small size (albeit light, in absolute terms), you feel that the material of which it is built is valid. Once the lever is framed and narrowed, the frame remains practically still (it will not be at the level of embedial heads, but also like the "Chinese" heads that I had that, after tightening the clutch, completely bust the frame!). At the moment I tried both with small and light optics (18-55) and with even night lys (tamron 70-300VC), all on Canon Eos 30D. I hope in the holding of the locking mechanism (which for now is perfect, but I have not used it much), but otherwise, given the cost, it seems to me an excellent investment. UPDATE: Also tried with Canon 5D ii - Zeiss Sonnar 200mm f/2.8 (2,120g of total weight, not quite a fuselage), always on the aforementioned Rollei stand, for star photos (so long exposures) and held up perfectly. I therefore confirm the goodness of the purchase!
