Since suffering a back injury that has radically limited the weight I can carry, I'm doing my best to lighten the loads I can carry. In LF, I've switched over to a Walker Titan XL (since I shoot primarily landscapes and wide angles), a carbon fiber tripod, and I carry no more than 2 lenses at a time. The problem I'm having now is that the pan/tilt tripod head I'm using is very heavy. I know most people don't like to use ballheads for LF, but the majority of them are much, much lighter than the pan/tilt heads.
I had pretty my decided on one of the new Pro Gold heads from Photo Clam, but I've read horrible things about their customer service (being non-existent or never responding to customer queries), so I've ruled that out. Then there is the very light Markins Q3 head and the Arca Swiss P0.
Any solid recommendations for these or others? Alternatively, is there anywhere out there a 3-way PT in the same weight class as these that I'm not aware of?
THANKS!
