thebrothersthre3 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 I just got a Miller 20 fluid head, apparently they are rated for 22 pounds! My reasoning was if it can handle a 20 pounds setup it can handle my 2-3 pound setup, looks like I may need to add a bit of weight lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aquilasfx Posted March 7, 2019 Author Share Posted March 7, 2019 Hello, I worked in these days with my GH5 and miller air tripod in Valencia. I’m satisfied about this combination. I have just a question: during the flight, I separated head from from legs to let the tripod enter inside the checked bag. I used a manfrotto soft bag for the legs and a padded handkerchief to protect the head. I tried to bend the original padded cordura bag included by Miller to fit inside the checked bag, but is too padded and long and is not easy to bend without damage it... but in this way in Valencia I had to transport the tripod without bag... Do you have any suggestion for a bag that can be easily bended? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Sports Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 I just upgraded from a Manfrotto 502 to the Libec RH25D which has a counterbalance range of 4 to 11lbs (1.8 to 5kg) Both of my cameras (A6300 and Z90) are underweight but fully rigged I can just pass the minium. Another add on for a bit more weight is a QR plate adapter. My new head doesn't use manfrotto 502 style PL plates so it was bound to happen for me anyways. But its a solid chunk of aluminum and wont offset your rig since your just stacking it directly on top. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00YUQBOKK/ref=dp_prsubs_1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
