EX3 nanoflash vs samurai?

Alistair, yeah, I'm using a Gitzo tripod (no center column) built for a DSLR + 400mm f/2.8 lens and lock down the Really Right Stuf BH-55 ballhead. Hoping to buy a Vinten or such this year. My current video tripod is a monstrous Bogen, but since I do with stills and video on trips, I just take the Gitzo or a smaller Really Right Stuff Ground Pod. Most of the wiggling occurs when I shoot video or stills of animals in the trees. Wind will move it a tad, but fingers always do it. I know my 501 faux-fluid video head just won't give me the vertical angles.
