Hi,
This thread is being started in spite of Artie's very valid warnings and misgivings about The Sidekick.
I have decided to try the Sidekick because I do not go out for a day and only concentrate on one type of photography. The idea of constantly changing heads doesn't appeal to me.
Unfortunately, I currently have the Manfrotto 488RC2 ball head (great head!); unfortunately because it is not compatible with the Sidekick system.
Those of your that have the Sidekick and are happy using it and willing to admit using it :D , what ball head are you using?
I will need to support a 1D3 and a 300 f/2.8.
Thoughts?
Cheers, Jay
