Redsnapper ball heads

[ThelVlenace]

Just wondering if anyone is able to tell me the difference between the rsh-12 and rsh-61 ball heads on the redsnapper site? Just seems to be a considerable amount between the two!

Never used either, but difference is ball size, weight & weight capacity. 5Kg as opposed to 10Kg.

I have both of those heads. I use the RSH-12 on a set of Redsnapper legs, and the RSH-61 on a Gitzo 1542T as it's a good bit lighter and more compact. The RSH -61/Gitzo combination easily supports a gripped 7D or 1D MkIII with a 70-200 2.8 Mk2 attached, and with a combined weight of 1.3kg is easily carried as a matter of course.
