I have two Gitzos. One is too big and heavy except when shooting with a large telephoto lens. Another fairly light conductor that I have used for both plein air painting and photography. However, I needed something that could fit in a backpack and still hold a decent weight. MePhoto was perfect. This is similar to what Richard McKinley uses outdoors. I have used it and find it fits perfectly with the Heilman backpack and plate holder. Would recommend to anyone looking for a simple alternative. Well made and the price is right.
