This is a great 3 way head for my bogen tripod
2009-07-04This isn't for nature walks, this head is heavy. However it is great in the studio, you don't have to worry that your camera is going to fall even at 90degrees, cause this head is made to keep your camera safe. I have several Bogen products, you just can't go wrong with them.
As good as it gets for a 3-way head
2009-06-16I've used this 3-way head on everything from 35mm to 8x10 heavy studio cameras and I can tell you it's built rock solid. The over-sized rubber grips make it easy to control any of the three axis points. Having bubble levels in two planes really helps out too. The quick release plate is a requirement, but it's a terrific accessory because it lets you demount any camera in about 1 second, yet locks it firmly in place when needed. The Pro Head is also rather compact in size, which is a nice feature. All the controls fit close to the center chassis so you don't snag them when moving around. For this reason alone I'd recommend it. The gold indicator trim is a nice touch too! For under $300 I don't see a better 3-way head on the market.

Audio & Video Connections Guide
" For a list of all the ways technology has failed to improve the quality of life, please press three." - Alice Kahn
This quote is certainly applicable to consumer electronics. From the very first commercially produced radios to the latest in high-definition television technology, the manner in which the components used to deliver our news, music, movies and entertainment are interconnected seems to have escaped logic. For both the newcomer and the old hand alike, connecting equipment in the most efficient and effective manner can be a painful chore. It is hoped this article will improve your background knowledge concerning potential A/V system connection schemes and where each is most appropriate. The next time you find yourself in a "connectivity quandary" perhaps the ideas shared here will help you to quickly solve the riddle of which wire goes where and why!

its pros and cons
VHS
The VHS format is the oldest type of camcorder. This type of video camcorder
is fast becoming outdated, because you can only play back
the video on a VHS VCR system. VHS
camcorders are not nearly as clear as digital
video camcorders that offer clear video with 540 lines of resolution,
VHS video cameras only offer 240 lines of resolution. They also weigh more
and are much more bulky, that dv camcorders. You can only find these video
camera used because their technology is now outdated.
VHS-C
