I purchased a Linhof 4x5 monorail, and am looking for a good stable tripod for it. I currently have a Bogen/Manfrotto 190XPROB, but that is rated for 15 lbs, I believe, and I think I'll want something more sturdy for a LF camera.
Frank Petronio's house this weekend to see his 8x10 LF in action (thank you Frank, beautiful piece of equipment), and he certainly has a sturdy metal tripod for it.
What do you guys recommend? Ideally, I want something that can get down quite low (but not center column tilting thing), and can also go up fairly high.
In light of the maxim that for tripods, you can pick two of stable, light, and affordable, but not all 3, I'll forgo the "light" part.
