[Leica] OT : Tripod recomendations

[imagist3 at mac.com (George Lottermoser)]

I have one of these as well.
Certainly the fastest adjusting tripod I ever used.
A pleasure in that regard.

I truly dislike the head;
which as I recall is not easily removed
or replaced.

I'd given it to my dad decades ago.
It returned to me when he left this life.
