Re: New camera plate announced - KIRK

I have their medium size ballhead. Have only had it since 
mid January and it is very little used to date. With *ist-D 
and an FA-80-200/2.8, it seems very stable. I am still 
learning the proper degree of normal 'drag' to set when such 
a heavy kit is mounted.

have you used either of the Kirk ball heads? they certainly get good reviews
by people i respect. i am thinking of getting the BH-3 for my mid-range ball
head on my medium tripod. i'm gearing up to replace my large ball head on my
large tripod with a Wimberly head.
Herb...

PS i have been bugging them too. i like their QR plates because they also
have a 1/4 screw socket for times when you have to borrow someone else's
tripod or use a very small one where it's not worth putting on a QR head.

Thank you! I can now remove from my ToDo list my monthly
item: "bug Kirk about new plates for the *ist-D."
