Ditto this and the reason why I sold my Berlebach to get a Ries. Yeah it's heavier but feels much more solid imo. The two way heads are dead simple to use and I like them better than ball heads for LF work.I absolutely love the leg locks on the Ries tripods.
If it's still for sale, I'd suggest emailing john sanderson about the Ries he has for sale here.
