suck my woke dick posted:Ehhhhhhhhhhhh. I tried the ballheads and was not impressed, they're minimally adequate for light gear but you have to tighten them for way too many turns until they don't sag with even a slightly heavy lens pointed at an angle. Oh yeah I changed out the head quickly for a Markins Q3T which is pretty solid.

You could consider the RX10 iv...the zoom range is now up to 600mm.

Constellation I posted:I think KEH is actually pretty bad now after new ownership. This is just from reports online though, haven't used them in a long rear end time. Their film gear selection and ratings are pretty bad now, post-takeover.

Sirui and Markins make pretty solid heads for MF cameras, but you'll have to get the larger end ones.

SMERSH Mouth posted:It's not like I'm completely ignorant of tripods, but what I've found is that 'heavy duty' 'professional' and 'high weight capacity' are all aspects that don't necessarily translate to 'can handle a Pentax 6x7' and I could easily make an expensive mistake in buying something that isn't going to cut it. Both those tripod heads you linked look extremely flimsy for a Pentax67 and nowhere near heavy duty or professional. If you want geared movement, try the Arca-Swiss Cube or D4 series tripod heads. I have the Cube and it doesn't move a millimetre with my huge and heavy MF macro rail setup.

SMERSH Mouth posted:Well, guess I'm glad I asked. Obviously the feedback in this thread so far isn't on board with what the off-site posters were saying about those heads. The Pentax 67 is value priced because it's heavy and big. Maybe you can consider this head: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1217470-REG/manfrotto_405_pro_dgtl_geard.html

SMERSH Mouth posted:Sounds pointless on full frame, but a 25/.7 on m43 would be actually pretty sweet. Currently there's only the Zeiss 50/0.7 but they could only make 10 of them. I suppose even a 25mm version would be pretty hard to make as well.

President Beep posted:It’s crossed my mind, but that’s about as far as the consideration has gotten. I’m not necessarily interested in true macro per se, but I would like to improve the minimum focusing distance. It’s something like a meter as-is, and it’d be nice to shorten that. There's still going to be a fair amount of parallax error with those. Already the normal minimum focus has some parallax, but the rolleinar ones will tend to cut off a lot of the heads if you're doing portraits.

Dr. VooDoo posted:For those who use the Billingham Hadley or other similar bags do you carry a tripod separately when you use one or do you use a separate bag that has an attach point for a tripod when you do need to carry one? If I was going to bring along a tripod I'd probably just switch to a backpack then. Or get a tripod sling.

The closest is a camera phone app that only has manual controls. Beats all your suggestions cos the apps are under $10!
