Sachtler ENG 75/2 D HD

(1/2) > >>

Eddie Draaisma:
It seems that the Sachtler ENG 75/2 D HD ALU tripod can be bought for less money than a comparable Gitzo 5532S or 5542LS. It is lighter (3.1kg vs 3.9kg) but a little longer during transport (69cm vs 68cm and 61cm). So it seems a no-brainer to me, but I might be overlooking something.

For mounting the Burzynski head, do I need the Manfrotto 520BALLSH 75mm short half bowl or will a washer and bolt suffice??

Jakov Minić:
I have the Manfrotto half ball, so wouldn't know exactly if the washer-bolt combination will work...

Yes it does.

Eddie Draaisma:
Thanks Jakov and Erik, I know now what to do  8)

Jan Anne:
Eddie, do you realise that you are comparing one of the biggest Gitzos with one of the smallest Sachtlers?

They are completely different animals, the ENG 75 is more like a 3 series Gitzo than a 5 series.
