tangaroa67 Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 Hi, Does anyone know of anyone selling RRS stuff here in Thailand? I know they don't have a Thai distributor, but I wondered if there was perhaps someone selling their stuff on the grey market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tangaroa67 Posted January 9, 2016 Author Share Posted January 9, 2016 Apologies. Really Right Stuff (RRS) is a tripod manufacturer. I'm looking for one of these, which due to the cost (and another forum member's negative shipping experience), I'm reluctant to have shipped from the States.http://www.reallyrightstuff.com/TVC-34L-Tripod-with-Full-Gimbal-Head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guzzi850m2 Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Top shelf tripod by the looks at it (and the price, holy cow man). I just bought a tripod for 890 baht after I looked at one at BigCamera for 14500 baht and thought to myself; that is the bloody same as I paid for my used X-Pro1 body, no bloody way am I gonna pay that . Good enough for me since I am a Sunday photographer May I ask tangaroa67; I seen some of your night shoots here and they are mostly awesome, are you a pro?

tangaroa67 Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 Thanks, @guzzi850m2 ! No, I'm not a 'pro' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt1591 Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Although Really Right Stuff is often overkill, there is a lot ro be said for buying quality equipment. Gimbals are nirmally used on heavy, long focal length lenses, lenses that can easily be worth manynrhousands of dollars. In this case, one wants a head that is bullet proof. That said, I haven't seen any RRS in Bangkok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tangaroa67 Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 I've been down the path of buying both cheaper and lighter tripods. I'm looking to buy something bulletproof that'll pretty much outlive me :-)As for the gimbal, I'm looking to do multi-row panoramas, as well as keeping a level horizon on the rare occasion I shoot sports/wildlife.
