What's a good set of sticks for a Bogen/Man. 501/503 head? at DVinfo.net

Of course I want 3283 sticks, but those are a bit expensive... I currently have a 3021s.

Any ideas? want to spend less than US$250 on the legs.

Does that 3181 come with the necessary parts to mount the 501 head to the ball leveler? Also, do you have a spreader for it?

Don't have a spreader.....

I bought the 501/3181 as a set from B&H not seperate. The came in their own seperate boxes and I think the connection piece came with the head and not the sticks.

Bulldog, if you want great info (with good prices), contact: peter@leoscamera.com

He'll give you the straight goods, answering all your questions. Leo's is also the Miller distributor in Canada. They have much lower pricing than in the USA (25 to 30% less).
