I know it's a video head, but I was wondering if it will hold the camera tight even with semi heavy lens attached.. say.. 24-70L with 5D.

my cheap tripod is not steady enough for my SLR and want to get something that will not slip when I lock it down. I know ball heads will do that, but I can see myself doing video more than half the time so want a fluid head. thanks.

I have a 501 head and its more than enough to hold my 300 f4L w/ tcon and 30D. Its really overkill. I use it mainly with my 8 LB telescope.
