Hi all,
Just acquired a Wimberley Sidekick and want to know what ballhead to get.
Got no experience with ballheads as Ive always used the Manfrotto 'tuning fork'.
TIA
John

I'm using the Manfrotto 488RC2 (converted to Arca-Swiss with a Kirk clamp) to support my Sidekick. It works very well and should be fine as long as you don't try to load it up with anything larger than the 100-400.

If I had the money, I'd get a RRS BH-55 or BH-40...
