Unfortunately my ball head is somewhat past it's best. Ive read through the forums here, and for someone watching the pennies, the Dyna Tran auctions on EBay seem to present remarkable value for money.

However I'm in the UK, and although they do say on the auction they will ship worldwide, I have twice sent off requests for shipping costs before making a bid, and have not had a reply the best part of a week later. Has anyone here from the UK used Amvona at all so they can give me an idea of costs, also it tends to worry me from a customer service point of view. It does seem to please me greatly from not spending a weeks earnings on a tripod head though.

See here (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=164099) ... it reviews their top of the range combo and shows the head which I kept in preferfence to the Manfrotto 488 RC2 I had. Also, you can get a P&P quote to UK via the Amvona listings in eBay ... but beware of VAT/Duty and collection fee, all of which I was hit with.

I bought my tripod/head combo for a specific project and have hardly used it. If you want to make an offer on the head that isn't silly then I will sell it. I can make do with my monopod head.
