Hello,
for my Swaro scopes I use a Gitzo tripod and a Manfrotto fluid head. Works great.
But the combo is heavy, particularly when in the Alps or other mountains.
For that I have a Nikon Field Scope 13-40x50.
I am looking for a light tripod and head (ideally not more than 2kg together) than I can carry up a mountain or use for travelling.
There are some with integrated ball-heads but I am not sure a ball-head is that great for scopes.
Thanks!
Markus
