Everything is a compromise. I can’t do a tripod that doesn’t have multi position legs and the ability to change heads. I’m on the opposite side of Brad, I much prefer twist lock.

I’ve been wondering this as well. I really like the 624 and the weight savings may not be worth the trouble.

My main thought was to have a tripod/Kowa 554 combo, that I never hesitate to throw in a pack and take with me.

Right now I only take my Kowa 773/Slik 624 on specific hunts because of the added weight and bulk.
