I've been using the dolica proline AX620B100 for my Wista 45n and it has been great. They are cheap and available on amazon.com with amazon prime free 2-day shipping option (if you have amazon prime). I use it with just the ballhead fine because the Wista has a side strap to hold to prevent the camera from falling(EDITIED: when the ballhead screw is released - when it's tight the camera doesn't fall!). I've considered getting a pan head for the dolica, as they are also cheap and available on amazon (as the whole tripod+pan head).
I broke a leg at the mounting because I stuck it in knee-deep snow and foolishly did not account for the outward pressure that the snow places on the legs as they are driven deeper. I replaced the leg no problem. That is my only complaint.
