Hello. I am in the market in getting a new tripod and ballhead.
For tripods, I have narrowed it down to the Feisol 3402N and 3441 (I'm trying to go light/small but still steady for travel), but I'm open to any other suggestions. Also, has anyone here had experiences with these two tripods by any chance? (The Gitzo Traveler/Mountaineers are slightly too expensive for me).
For ballheads, I'm considering buying a used Markins M10, Kirk BH-3 (my 'favorite' so far), or Really right stuff BH-55. Are there any particular advantages/disadvantages between these?
I'm also considering just purchasing a new Benro KS series ballhead, which are supposedly almost as good for alot less. Or would it be a better investment to get a higher end ballhead used?
Thank you all in advance.
