Rubber feet.I am curious for those of you using a tripod in the field are you using spiked feet or the regular rubber feet?
I think the ball head is a better defence than any spike especially against the Aussie drop bear...........There are no bear around here, so I don't need the spiked feet.
In most cases rubber feet will be fine.I am curious for those of you using a tripod in the field are you using spiked feet or the regular rubber feet?
If you have a look at one of Steve’s videos he advises that sinking the tripod feed into the sand a little is beneficial. I’d have thought that putting CD’s under the feet would make things much less stable, not to mention the mucking around.In most cases rubber feet will be fine.
On sand an old CD/DVD on each foot will do if you dont have any sand feet.
As for Snow I would expect it to be similar to sand. (We dont get much snow in Australia)...
