Apologies in advance... I've been using a CF Velbon Sherpa with a Manfrotto 701rc2 for roughly the last decade, and I think this year I may replace it, as the legs are slipping a little. I'm fairly happy with the set up, but I'm after something a bit more stable. I have my eye on either the Manfrotto 500/501 head, or one of these cheaper rebrandings? I'll also be needing new legs, what would be the best options for around £100? I'm not particularly bothered about CF, more about stability and having something tall enough (I'm 5'11) whereby I don't need to raise the central column. Any suggestions?
