LOL! Albert, it's the old rule:
"The more you curse the tripod on the way, the more you bless it when
you arrive."
I too have two. The Gitzo is handy and OK, but the Bogen 3051 heavy,
bulky, cumbersome and solid as a rock.
I'm thinking about adding a Uni-Lock for low level work. It's the
so-called improved version of the Benbo concept. Anyone have any
experience with it?
