#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.

@mattblaze@federate.social I’ll probably get the RG-1, as it seems to be likely the head thats best overall for my standard use-case(s).

Just curious: did you keep your previous head after getting the RG-1? If so, are you still using it occasionally and in what situations?

@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.
