marcg Posted October 28, 2013 Share #201 Posted October 28, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) Neil, when you say gutsy ballhead I think you mean gitzo and I think this is the GH1781QR, right? I have the GH1780QR and it does the job well. That makes it a little clearer Marc it's a gutsy ball head The case is a perfect snug fit and even in portrait mode it felt solid ......... No duct tape needed like the Luigi.........lol Thanks. It looks nice Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dee Now that I have spent some time with this lens it will be my go to lens 90% of the time when I need something wider I will go to my second lens 21 lux ( no more lenses) and if I need something longer I will wait and buy a 90 APO................

marcg Posted October 29, 2013 Share #206 Posted October 29, 2013 Did you use the standard tripod screw or did you need a longer one to go through the case and into the camera? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LocalHero1953 Posted October 30, 2013 Share #211 Posted October 30, 2013 Neil, when you say gutsy ballhead I think you mean gitzo and I think this is the GH1781QR, right? I have the GH1780QR and it does the job well. I would be disappointed if there really is not something out there called a gutsy ballhead. If that's true I'm going to have to find something I can attach that name to. Or perhaps use it as a term of amiable abuse among mates: "did you really hang out of the car window to take that shot? You gutsy ballhead!" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

woorob Posted October 31, 2013 Share #213 Posted October 31, 2013 I took that picture in Srinagar Kashmir right beside the Pakistani border Wow, I've always wanted to travel to that area, it seems spectacularly beautiful. How was your trip? Was it hard to get there? Is there any danger in traveling there? Is it as stunningly beautiful as you expected? You're a lucky guy!
