Tripod for HDX900

[Robin Probyn]

But a good investment.. over the years will certainly pay for itself many times over.. take it off your tax anyway..

Been using the Video 20 for over twenty years. 3 new cameras, but same sticks & head. And robust enough to accommodate prompters when needed.

Ernie,
Up for a breath of air from a boatload of work — and just now fishing full-bore for this tripod setup.
What issues, if any, did you notice with the Libec system?
Were you able to get smooth starts & stops? No drifting?
I’ve googled all over, and this system, if as smooth as your experience with it, beats the others hands down in cost — $2K or so for all.
Tough enough? And enough to support a 900?
I suppose I’m looking here for reassurance — because it’s 1/3 the cost.
Thank you,
JR
