Thanks!

Is there up-to-date information about TMIP events?

I would assume that would be the most updated schedule. There was a thread here a while ago. Worse comes to comes worse ask Tim

Ah just wondering. I noticed that the maxi is a little bit smaller and a little bit lighter (and of course 40 dollars more expensive) :D

Newbie question (although Im like 5 posts from serious shooter): Whats a pan/tilt head?

Katie

Did they d/c that tripod? Not sure if I can find it on B&H site anymore.

Update: Correct, it's discontinued.

Anyway: A pan/tilt head is one that allows one axis to go on the horizon axis (pan) and another separate axis to move the camera towards the perpendicular (tilt). They usually have a handle on them to make it easier to pan, and the tilting is usually done by unscrewing a lock slightly, tilting it up, and then tightening it back down. In the example case, they have a handle for the tilt as well.

Ball Head:

The plate rests over a head that is on a ball in cup locking system. This is more compact, and is easier to quickly level for odd tripod angles, but is usually more difficult to pan with as the ball system is easier to tilt at the same time as panning. The pistol grip systems are glorified ball heads with a convenient method to quickly lock and unlock the head in position.

This one can go vertical like the one above as well by moving the plate, which can be done with the included screws.
