Hi all,

I have been given a Manfrotto 190nat3 tripod with manfrotto mn503 head. It has come from my uncle that was a keen bird photographer but I am heading down the landscape route and will be taking my camera kit to the back of beonde and up mountains. The head seems very heavy and does not tilt in to portrait stance so I would like some suggestion with what to replace it with. Also, is the 190nat3 a good landscape tripod? I'm wondering if it goes low enough to get good foreground shots. Any ideas? I'm trying to figure out whether to sell them both together of just get a new head.

Now, F-stop bags. Is it cheaper to buy from the shop in london that sells them or buy direct from the website? Anyone have experience?

Thanks
 
Yeah i have heard this so am trying to weigh up the import fees verses the higher perchase price over here.

What size ICU did you go for Neil? I have a 100-400 i'd like to have room for. Also did you go shallow or pro series? One more question as your local to me, where is the best shop to go and have a look at a large range of kit? Winchester is rubbish.
