I actually use an older Linof semi-ball head with my 1228.  It has very
limited movements, say 30 degreees of up or down movement....but it weighs
about 6-8 ounces, so it is light.  If I must take a tripod for the Hassy or
Leica, and IF I am able to cope with the idea if limited movement, this
combo is quite useful...

The Linhof item is about 2 inches high, and has an open ball and socket
design.  The ball is only the middle 1/3 section of a sphere.
