I can recommend this head. I have used mine for years. Not the lightest head you will ever come across. But because of that easily supports long lenses. The panning lever is really handy when doing landscapes.

Hi Andy
It dosnt matter how good thhey are as long as people like to see them.....
Well thats what I keep telling myself...

Welcome to the fold and the forum...

I dont know the technicalities of it, But full frame cameras produce far less noise than crop sensor camera. In the Manchester pubs where I shoot. Lenses have to be f2.8 or even faster. On my K5ii I limit the Iso at 6400 as its unuseable beyond that. More often than not images get turn to BW as there isnt enough light for true colour definition... When the K3 came out I didnt think it that great of an upgrade over the K5ii to warrant the expense. I'm so hoping the full frame will be.... Certainly the opening signs are looking good..

Plus As reluctant as I am. if it wasnt on the horizon, I would have changed brands by now...

Once you install an ssd in your computer there is no going back to tradional hard drives except for data storage. I agree that if your looking at speed an Intel processor is worth looking at first. Ive had my ssd for 2 years now. I would never go back to the older hard drives except for data storage.. Over the years I have had many traditional hard drives die on me. They are far too unstable..

I cant wait for the first reviews. I thought I had no intentions to spend the excess required on full frame. But when i give it some thought. For my low light gig photography. It will produce far less noise in images . For studio work the wifi option will be a great plus. Better crops from bigger file sizes. And still the crop sensor option for long lenses. Giving me that bit extra. Plus uses for my DA and other lenses.. If they keep the price sensible it can only be win win....

Thanks Smudge.. That's something to look into As I was planning to bounce my flash at the event.

Maybe a little away from topic. But does anyone know If Pentax cameras can be tethered in the capture one suite ?
