I've had the Manfrotto 324 RC2 for about a year and I'm now having problems with it not gripping the ball very well, and actually sagging in portrait orientation.
I'm using a pro body (D2x) and lens (12-24mm Nikon), but the head is certainly touted to be able to prop up more weight than this. My tripod is substantially under-used, and this problem is occurring after absolutely no more than 4 hours of accumulated use. [edit] Note: the problem has developed, rather than having always existed.
Does anyone know of some maintenance I should be doing on the head, to prevent/resolve this issue? Is it a known issue? Did I buy a lemon? Thoughts/advice gratefully received!
