I purchased a Sunpak carbon tripod that has a ball head and a pistol grip. I have a D7100, 18-200 lens and a 910 flash. The head will not support much beyond the camera and the lens at 75. There are so many heads out there that it is confusing to me. I wish to support the camera, the 18-200 extended and the 910 flash. Suggestions will be appreciated. :roll:
I can sympathize. There are so many tripods and so many heads. How do you decide? Weight-bearing is probably the most important consideration, but not the only one.
Here's an article from the "By Thom" series. It's hard to deny the logic of his article. It's also hard to spend the money he suggests. :D
