No, it was the 58FT, Cletus. The 38FT is rated for 20kg (44lbs), so it should hold most 8x10 field cameras comfortably.
For me, the attraction of these ball heads is the tilt lock; at this price, I don't know of any other manufacturer offering a similar feature until you get into $1000 Arca/Linhof territory.
I do plan on buying another 38FT, new; and if that goes well, I'd spring for the 58 for the 8x10, if I thought it was needed.
