Hi Rich -


I very much agree with what you are saying. For the zoo trip tomorrow, I have no choice but to use my ballhead but would like to find a tilt head with quick release for future use. I am just not finding one that will do a good enough job of supporting a 7D and 100-400mm lens.


Do you think the Manfrotto 234RC will do the trick. I also do not want to spend more than $70 for one.


Thanks,


Denise
