mark_in_st._louis Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 I've currently got the 70-200 VR on a Nikon D3, but may move up in the future. Have GM3551 on order. Wondering if the RRS MH-01-LR is appreciated by those that order it, or returned? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter_n1664876959 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Still no responses, very disappointing. That RRS ballhead certainly <em>looks</em> the part! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kolya_wolf1 Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 I have the MH-01 and like it. It's certainly strong enough for any lens you can carry. My one reservation is that you cannot fine tune the friction the way you can with the best ball-heads. But the friction knob is very easy to use and gives good tactile feedback. But I would recommend getting the "Pro" (screw-knob) version rather than the "LR" (leaver-release) version, because it's generally more secure -- especially if you're balancing a heavy lens at a steep angle.
