    Default Gitzo replacement

    Good morning fellow photographers,
    This is my first time on the site, i'm very impressed with the quality of work here and the informative posts.
    Recently I broke a leg on my Gitzo GT3532LS, as in all 3 CF tubes. Let me say up front, this was not a Gitzo flaw or failure, just my dumb luck.
    I contacted Ian @ Gitzo spare parts who informed me the 3 leg sections would be north of 500 CAD plus duty and HST. I had to read the number twice!
    I've been doing a lot of research on tripods before pulling the trigger on replacing the leg. There seems to be a lot of good CF tripods available, now I need to pull the trigger.
    I currently shoot a canon pro body, with a Whimberley gimbal and usually a 500mm F4L ll.
    Looking for some feedback and suggestions from some of you who shoot a similar set up or weight(14+ LBS)
    I have been leaning heavily towards the Fiesol CT 3372 or 3472, anyone using one of these?

    I'm very happy with my Induro GIT304L. I also use the Wimberley with the side mount conversion.
