I was curious if there was a strong preference for either a pan & tilt or a ball head?
I am new to LF and have a Cambo SC that weights about 7lbs., I think.
With my MF and 35mm gear I have always used a ball head. When I carry the 4x5 on the tripod the ball head I have does not hold the camera, even when I crank down tight on the tension adjusters.
It seems that with the big mass on top a pan and tilt would be easier???
