Just remember, at that price-point, you probably won't get much (if any) after-sale service if the parts break. Also, I gather the included head is a little large, and may not allow the legs to ...

This one is 1/2" longer than your desired "folded length", but otherwise, ticks ALL your boxes, (and then some). https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1113267-REG/davis_sanford_tr654c_36_traverse_ ...

Mike, Once you start looking at higher-end tripods, you'll quickly discover that they ALL involve some sort of compromise when multi-tasking. Like you, I had a hard time deciding on precisely what ...

Brian, Does your software include a graphic or parametric equalizer with a real-time display? This would allow you to "see" which frequencies are being affected by wind-noise in real time. ...

There's probably a single hex-key, used to periodically tighten the leg-locks, and to do the same for the leg-joints, where the legs meet the spider. You can probably pick one up at the local ...

I'm just amazed that some entity hasn't come along and bought back the Bowens name from Aurelius, and rejuvinated the brand.

Ultimately, I went with the FlashPoint/Godox units. Three Zoom Li-ion TTL R2 speedlights,,,a pair of eVOLV 200 TTL,,,,a pair of StreakLight 360 w/BP-960's,,, and a pair of AD600B TTL w/ X-Pro ...

I took the plunge alright,,, but not with the Bowens. I had a heckuva time trying to find replacement flash-tubes for the Bowens, so I decided to re-think everything, and start over from scratch. ...

Ellis, check out the AcraTech model #1117. It looks like the 3/8" top-stud is removeable with a hex key. Check out this video, at the 2:19 mark, and you can clearly see the hex key orifice inside ...

Why would a thief waste time cutting a bag, to see what's inside? They'll just grab the entire bag, and run. Get "value-replacement" insurance,,, itemize your gear (with photo's, serial numbers, etc).

lowbrow, I went through that exercise about 4 months ago. Here's a link to a very "spirited" discussion about the XMT500 that I was considering at that time. I was completely convinced back then, ...

Hmmm, I was just watching a video where they used a drop-down pin on the BabyBoom. I'll try to find it again.
