I have been using a Benbo trekker for about two months and I find that the arm shakes due to the weight of the camera. This is even if I am using a cable or remote. I may as well be hand held. Maybe my technique is wrong, but I can't seem to get it to work.I would still like to use a tripod as my shutter speeds can e as low as 1/15. What set ups are worth a look? Geared Head? should I just get a plate for the Macro and use the Gitzo?</blockquote>
