#photography nerditry:
I’ve been playing with the Rogeti RG1 geared tripod head, and I’m liking it more than I expected to. Rogeti is a small specialized Chinese manufacturer; the tripod head is their flagship product. Compared with the Arca C1 Cube (my go-to), it’s a bit smaller and lighter, but the thing that’s really growing on me is the interchangeable modules for z-axis (panning) movements.
It’s not cheap (about USD900), and there are a few annoying quirks, but I’m using it more and more.
@RecoveredExpert@mastodon.social Yes, I kept the Linhof (and the Arca Cube, too). That’s a bit extravagant, admittedly, but they all have different strengths and weaknesses.
