HA! I’m looking for one of those, like the one in the Popular Photography ads
with Lester Bogen sitting on top of it!
I’m looking for something heavy enough for my 350/2.8. The Gitzo carbon rings
like a bell whenever you touch it, and the Benbo #1 is, well, indestructible...
perhaps I don’t really need a new old tripod, after all...
