Does anyone know where in the UK I can purchase the MH-01 Pro head to use with my Gitzo GM5541 Carbon Mono-Pod ?.

Ordering one through they're web site sounds a right pain with all the custom duties and parcel force duties on top of the delivery charges.

Any help in the right direction for this head in the UK would be great. Oh and I'm NOT really interested in any other head!.

They are based in Holland but ship very quickly to UK. I ordered a RRS Cable Relief Spacer and it arrived in 4 days from date of order :D


Gear? Don't want my wife seeing how much kit I've got ;)

Not even the RRS MH-02? I like the way it rotates 90 degrees by loosening the knob.

Sorry I meant any other make of head. I'll look into that one as well, thanks

Annoying isn't it. I bought my MH-01 from the US (ouch!) but if I were buying today I think I'd get the Kirk - LINK (external link)

I have several of the Kirk quick release clamps and two of their L brackets. They make a fine product.

I was on the verge of getting the RRS, why would you go for the Kirk? Would you kindly explain, thanks.
