RRS BH55Pro Help

Postby kipper on Sat Feb 06, 2010 6:43 pm

Hi guys, I know it's been a while since I've posted in these forums but that's pretty much because I haven't been shooting (well photos) for a quite some time now. Things have changed and I no longer spend as much time photographing as I used to primarily because the winters are a lot longer than the Australian ones and when we do have a summer it's over in a blink of an eye, sometimes you don't even realise you've had one ;) Plus there isn't the same sort of wildlife (Birds of Prey) at hand to shoot like their was in Melbourne (or Oz in general). There are places here that they are abundant but it involves travelling great distances and I can't afford to do that, plus where they are (Wales) it's hit and miss with the weather which I experienced with my last trip there. Apart from that I had a fairly serious car accident at the beginning of last year and wrote my car off which I decided not to involve the insurance company as it would of sky rocketted my premium so had to pay for the recovery and disposal of the vehicle and purchase a new vehicle out of my own pocket so sadly my 500mm F4 IF-ED AF-S II had to be sold on. I ended up getting a good price for it from a guy who photographs deer in the New Forest so it has gone to a good home. Now I've moved on to other hobbies which aren't that cheap either and have the same sort of addictiveness as camera equipment - RC Helicopters and Archery (not at the same time :biglaugh: ).

Anyway moving on, the reason I'm here is that I'm selling on the RRS BH55PRO and B2L 80mm clamp that I own seperately. Now what I wanted to know did the countersunk screw come with the ballhead or the clamp, I'm pretty sure they come with the clamps and brackets. Can anybody clarify this for me. Cheers. I will look at getting back in to photography but think I'm going to change what I shoot. Looking into photographing landscapes as there is plenty of that to shoot here. Just need another lens and was looking at the Sigma zooms with fixed apertures as they look reasonably priced compared to the Nikons.

I think you mean you're selling a BH-55, and a B2-Pro/L ?
I think you'll find the countersunk screw is sold as a separate item, not bundled with either component.

Yeah I know I've been a bit out of it Dave. I feel like I shouldn't be taking photos as I have many to sort out as it is, so why add to the task that already needs addressing ;)
