A few days ago while shooting at night in san francisco I noticed my camera loose on the tri pod I checked all my knobs and screws come to find out the mounting plate or base plate was broken from the center were the stud holds it to the tube , when I looked further I saw the peice pressed into the tube were the stud goes had 1 very small pin holding this into the tube also bad design. How lucky am I or should I say how lucky is enduro a 1ds mark 3 and a 70-200 hitting the ground wouldnt be good. I tried glueing it together and thinking of ways to secure the peice in the tube and said forget it, I took a chance and called induro and discused the problem with the tech and would you believe it no problem what so ever they are sending out a new tube assembly with plate with all the up grades and they didnt even want the old part back just needed to send a pic of the broken piece, so their tube comes with more screws then the one pin style and will have no problems with this one my tri pod was purchased in 2009 and is ac-413 so if you have one check it outAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4283143918787874980.post-42115280720638407552011-02-28T21:18:56.009-05:002011-02-28T21:18:56.009-05:00You make a very good point but so far I have not h...You make a very good point but so far I have not had any issues with my tripod and I usually use it with the legs splayed as far as they will go.

The twist locks next to the rubber feet are touching the ground. When you put your ballhead and camera on the tripod will the twist locks press down hard on the ground? Will this damage the twist locks? This looks like a bad thing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4283143918787874980.post-16036076324182742962011-02-10T10:08:00.777-05:002011-02-10T10:08:00.777-05:00Oh .. :-( Thanks for the info.Oh .. :-( Thanks for the info.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4283143918787874980.post-31245576856055616122011-02-10T07:41:06.631-05:002011-02-10T07:41:06.631-05:00Nope.

I was set on getting the PHQ3 panhead too, but those are out of stock everywhere. So I guess I have to be patient.<br /><br />After spending months trying to find the right tripod and head, to replace my old aluminum tripod, your blog has been a tremendous help.
