Frage von Dagonator:Hello!
I have long been the interest of animals to shoot. Especially birds. I own a EOS 5D MKII, and a 300mm 2.8 IS with 2x teleconverter.
So far I've used the equipment to take pictures of animals, now I'd like to bring a bit of movement in my paintings.
What is missing is a clever tripod head. In the moment I have a ball of Novoflex but the pan so you get out impossible. Therefore, I would have liked something else.
Comes to mind: 300mm 2.8 IS with (2x teleconverter; about 3kg)
EOS 5D MKII with battery grip and a bit of accessories. (; about 1.5 kilograms)
So at about 4.5 kilograms.
The important thing is that the head can be synonymous to 100% fix, because I want to buy my own not to take photographs. If I want to be able to use it for both. Back to the Shooting and Photography.
Highest price, let's say 700 ¬ I would obviously prefer less. :) If things do not go any other way or I get a little more for something brilliant, I might drauflegen be one or two euros.
Somebody has an recommendation?
Antwort von carstenkurz:
Whether you can use a video head for photography - you can argue about it. In my opinion, only if the tripod is synonymous host a hemisphere, as a video head alone can not be leveling 3D. Of course you can druntersetzen a ball head - but then you need to take pictures of course, the video head is no longer synonymous. So I fear that you, if your current tripod is not an option on a hemisphere, synonymous, a new tripod, or a complete package is due. However, when you come out with 700 euros already synonymous nor - for example, Manfrotto has diem price range 2-3 matching suits, for example, 501/503 +525
Now the 300/600mm related to a Vollformatkamera synonymous not so absurdly long focal. Nevertheless, you need to have a decent fluid head. Recently entered into Vinten 9 Head off on ebay for 220 euros or so. It would be important in your case with a separate security Gegengewichtsseinstellung AND a separate deactivation of the balance spring (and the head usually always in a horizontal position back). In addition, there must be at the 300 pipe with converter already be a solid camera plate, the simple snap-on plates of the beginners video tripods, I would risk no longer there.
With Manfrotto times I would start. Incidentally, there are some lenders nationwide Komplettstative borrow for such small money - before you as a beginner what you buy the wrong video, I'd take sowas mal Days Away to try and. Video Tripods and Neiger distinguish itself clearly Fotokram of view, so dear erstmal.
