Hi all
I would like to upgrade the tripod choice for my Nikon Fieldscope ED50 (straight model) without reaching the cost levels of the carbon tripods.
I currently own a Slik Pro EZ but the SH-707 pan head which is a bit stiff in tilting and I don't like it too much: furthermore this head is difficult to remove from the column.
So I have focussed the Velbon Sherpa 50, which seems to be quite similar to my Slik, except for the tiny ball head which might be better for a lightweight spottingscope such as the ED50. I do not know it however.
Any opinion will be very welcome
Thank you
