ive looked at other tripod threads and the fitzharris book a bit and im trying to get straight what the components of a nature photography tripod system are.
1. i need a ball head that supports the various types of panning and ALSO something like a sidekick or jobu for heavy lenses right? do i need something like a sidekick for my canon50D and 70-300IS combo?
2. the basic components that i'll have to buy are: tripod, ball head, cable shutter release, quick release plate, jobu/sidekick, and.. what pieces am i forgetting about? what other costs will there be that aren't accounted for here, or is this everything i'll need?
thanks for the advice,
Matt
