I'd consider the 190 + 700RC2 as that combination is far lighter and that is important when you have a heavier scope.Nadine said:Hi! everyone...I need some advice! I have a Leica APO 77 (straight), im not sure if I should buy the Manfrotto 055Nat3 or 190Nat3? im about 1,65m! is the 190 tall enough? even when looking up?

I can't think why it shouldn't be - but having taken it apart to tighten up the panning movement a shade, as I say, I was not overly impressed with the way the Allen key mechanism operated - in fact, it didn't seem to do much at all regarding tensioning, simply making the whole thing firmer all round. I hope it has done the trick - if not, it's going back as it's a lot of cash for something so straightforward.Grousemore said:I notice Manfrotto call it a 'Mini Video Head', is it man-enough for prolonged scope use?
