Mar 19, 2006 04:31 | #3 I haven't tried the 488 ballhead but the 486 seems quite solid and locks tight with the most heavy setup I can manage:  HOSTED PHOTO please log in to view hosted photos in full size. I love how the 055Pro can go very close to the ground, when rearranging the middle pole:  HOSTED PHOTO please log in to view hosted photos in full size. Cheers

I bought mine used (as with all my gear) and the used marked in Denmark isn't very big, so i jumped in when i saw the 055Pro. I bought it together with a Manfrotto 486 Rc0 ballhead and a Manfrotto 681B Monopod. Since i already have the 680B monopod which is smaller I'm going to sell the 681B.
