I presume that the RRS TVC-33 announcement has made the rounds at this point, and that people are sitting around wondering where the new tripod fits into the grander scheme of things.
I am still using an older, heavier Manfrotto 055C with my Contax 645, and watching the market for the perfect tripod for my work. I have considered getting one of the Gitzos, probably a 3 or 5 series. I am more concerned about unquestionable rigidity and vibration resistance than about weight, and will gladly carry the extra kilo if that allows me to shoot at 1/15s, for example
Does anyone have any more information about this new tripod, or perhaps even some beta-testing experience? From the weight and dimensions, I presume that the best comparison would be against something like a 3-series systematic.
