David,
I suggest that you consider a used, pan-tilt head, for example, the
Velbon PH-640 head (magnesium, 1 lb 6 oz) for sale at B&H for $65.00
USD. I'm confident there are others available in your neck of the woods.
Could make the tracking during those final, irreplaceable split-
seconds a bit simpler and the price seems right.
Or, better yet, a borrowed one? If I had one, I'd be happy to lend it
to you for your expedition.

All the best,
Bill

All:
I'm trying to decide on a new tripod head. Requirements are:
1) physically small & lightweight, for travel.
2) secure enough to hold R8+DMR +400 Telyt w/2x steady.
3) must be able to point at the noon sun (for solar eclipse photography)
4) relatively low cost.
At Photokina I saw the Novoflex Magic Ball 50 (Holds 7 kilos, so
should =
be
OK for weight) that was not too large, and looked really slick! =

Has anyone here used one of these.
Other ideas?
Thanks.
