This week I purchased a Manfroto 190XPRO3 tripod and a 3 way MHXPRO head

I'm doing product photography and this combo I'm sure will work great. Specially for the horizontal bar that will allow me to take zenital plane.

My cameras are exceedingly messy. They and their stuff are everywhere.

Still less messy than the stuff in a litter box!

I saw this group of gear on eBay the other day. I took a chance and won with an out the door cost of $126. I think I did ok.


Every single item has its box, paperwork, original plastic bag, and looks like I just walked out of the local camera store in 1990 with a BNIB item! I've even got a functioning SF1n with both databack AND AA battery grip! Wow.

Boy, looks like you will need quite a few cookies to measure all of that... Might as well get the whole 12 box set of them...

And congrats on the purchase, quite a deal!

Thanks. I have had such bad luck with SF1 cameras (I have 3 DOA here next to me) so this one is quite a surprise. Add to that the camera has both the databack and the original back (in the box) as well as both battery compartments and I just got through trying 4 AAs in it and it works! Wow. Now to try the lenses!
