Hi All
As it says above really. I have a Nikon D90 with a 300mm lens and also an Opticron GS52ED Scope.
I have been reading the threads on Tripod/heads, quite a few of them were nearly 3 years old and I know there are so many 'new' innovations going on all the time. Don't need top of the ladder makes just a nice reasonable 'combo' or separate tripod and head, like the idea of a fluid head, I know they are dearer, just like the idea of one, or a good pan and tilt.
I am on the small side in Height, just, and I mean just, 5ft. The weight of the D90 with lens is approx. 2 1/2 lbs and the scope is approx just under a pound...in weight that is.
Also my wife is going over to New York in a few weeks!! Is there anything I could get over there??
I always use local traders but just this once I thought I would get her to get me something!!
Many thanks for your help/advice
