Rated 5 out of 5

A step up!

The last two documentaries I did used various manfrotto heads and a carbon fiber tripod. They worked fine as long as I used body english to get the shot. I then purchased the solo tripod which is awesome but kept the manfrotto 504. The 504 was bulky on the solo but what the hey. Finally I added the Miller head. Wow! What a difference! Smooth, strong and compact. The set handles my 1dx mark ll and c300 mark ll with ease and I can pick up and go much easier. I've always had an aversion to dropping $ for a set of sticks and head, (Scottish Parents) but it's worth it if you can fit it in your budget.
