I love this one: Levelling Pan/Tilt Head, https://linhof.com/en/levelling-pan-tilt-head/
But this is the one I take out in the field: Gitzo G1570M, https://www.gitzo.com/global/low-pro...ries-5-g1570m/ because the other is to heavy.
The Gitzo Rationelle No. 3 should actually be very good for screwing the Linhof Technika onto. The Technika doesn't weigh much. The point is to let the camera swing out before you release.
The Technika has two connections. You should take the connection on the flap. Then the weight is distributed in a balanced way. The port on the body is for extreme wide angle images.
I once had a Gitzo clamp screwed onto the Gitzo head. But the cork or rubber of such heads does not hold the clamp tight and secure. Everything swings. Therefore, I do not use such QR Clamps with my Gitzo heads and like to use the original screws from Gitzo, without Clamps.
