Hi
I have just moved to Closeup/macro with the Nikon D70 and my new Sigma 150 lens. I have the Manfrotto 055MF3 tripod and the Head is a 701 RC2. This is a good setup for birding both for my scope and my main birding camera setup which is the D70+ Tamron 200-500, but the head is not very versitile for macro - the bar gets in the way for manual focus and it can't turn into a vertical plane.
Should I buy a new head only (?ball) or a smaller, more managable tripod setup
Recommendations please for a versitile macro tripod/head setup
Cheers
