I have a Berlebach tripod which I believe is the model 2042. It has two section legs and a tilting center column. I really like the tripod except for one thing- the leg spread. There are two stop positions for the legs. The one indicated by a red line on the adjustment wheel gives a very low, spread out position that can be useful for close to the ground work, but nothing else. The second position, marked with a white line, gives a tall position, but the legs are so steeply angled that I am afraid that the whole thing will tip over. Every other aspect of the tripod is so nicely designed that I wonder if I am missing something. If not, has anyone modified their Berlebach to give a more stable leg spread?
