I've got the Gitzo center ball G1377 M but now like the Manfrotto (Italian for
Bogan) 308 Ball head which only cost me 50 bucks and is the right size for Leica
M. It has only one control. That's what i like about it. The right size. The
right weight imo.
It's on my Gitzo Sport and i end up using that tripod more so because of it. The
center ball G1377 M is on a Reporter.
