Hi All
Any suggestions on a tripod for the Mamiya 645 pro. I wanted something
light weight, but sturdy.
Thank you
Mike Mueller

Manfrotto Carbon 440 with 460MG head has given me very good service over
the years with a Hasselblad 500, which must be a similar weight to your
Mamiya.

I just bought the Mnfrotto 055MF3 (MagFiber) carbon fibre tripod which
I've equipped with a Manfrotto 410 geared head. I use this for the
Hasselblad 500 and for studio work with 35mm.

A bit pricey, but I'll have it all for a long, long time.

Cheers,
Alan
