Hi Leif
Thanks for your reply. I have had another idea on a setup that might allow me to use my existing tripod rather than purchase another. If I purchased a quality ball head, this could be used on the Manfrotto for macro and the other idea is to use a Wimberley "Sidekick" which would fit into the ballhead and allow the mounting of the D70+Tamron 200-500 for bird photography and perhaps also the mounting of my Zeiss scope for bird viewing.
That is. Sidekick off, use ball head+QR plate for the Sigma 150 - Sidekick on for Tamron and scope.
Comments from users of "Sidekick" would be useful
By the way, the link for "Speedgraphic" does not take me to FLM but to a Italian graphic company!
Many thanks
Stuart
