I don't know much about these but I think I might want one!
Basically I use a Gitzo tripod with Gitzo Ballhead with arca plate adaptor. I quite like shooting the odd multi shot panorama but I'm finding it a little bit of pain with the ball head as it is. It has a rotating base so that aspect is fine but it relies on the tripod itself being level in order to get a cleanly stitched image without multiple wonkage (pretty sure that's a photography term).
I quite like the look of something like this:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/2715...1=ICEP3.0.0-L&ff12=67&ff13=80&ff14=108&ff19=0
but how well do they work? I presume the process is to set the tripod up, level off using the gizmo above and then level off the camera itself on the ball head and therefore when it rotates it will remain level. Have I got that right. Do they work well away from the theory?
