Had the 498 before, droops like no tomorrow.

Have the Q3t and 1541 combo now, money well spent. Your lenses will have no problem on the head

Good to hear some feedback on this combo. Anyone know the differences between the 1541T, 1542T and the 0541?

Gitzo has quite possible the worst website for comparing all these models unless I am missing a page like manfrotto's tripod picker.

I don't know much about the 0541 but I think the 1542T improves on the 1541T in that I think you get tripod head setting screws, and a little more height. However 1541T is better in that it can get lower and it is lighter and it has a higher weight capacity.

another head you could look at are the photo clam series
