Comments about Sachtler 0443 FSB-6T Aluminum Tripod System:
If you have a prosumer camcorder and are looking for the most bang for the buck in a professional fluid head tripod system you can't do better than this. If you are wondering if an extra grand is worth it when it comes to buying a tripod it is. Nothing seperates amateur productions from pro ones more than the jerky, shaky pans and tilts of a cheap tripod / head. The FSB6 has a great counterbalance system that allows me to load up my Sony V1U with as many accessories as I want and still balance it perfectly. The drag controls and balance make it silky smooth to pan and tilt with no "snap back" at the end of a pan.
