Heavy lens on tripod
#3
Thanks for the reply Popo.



Due to the fact that central weight is not at the camera tripod mount, a several problems occur.



1. Focus frame is moving down in case that tripod is placed in slightly soft surface. In case of asphalt, concrete and rocks it works fine. When I compose image I off-load the tripod from front weighted camera-lens. When I tighten the ballhead and release the camera the frame is moving down.

2. Some motion blur appear at pixel level. Again due to the off-centered weight the tripod is not as stable as equally loaded tripod at all 3 legs.

3. I cannot perform Exposure bracketing and mirror lookup at my Canon 50d and 400d.

4. The off centered camera lens requires to tighten the ballhead firmly.



Greetings,

Miro
