Looking for tripod/tripod head recommendations. I currently use a Manfrotto 190X pro 3 aluminum tripod paired with a Manfrotto 502 fluid head. While I’m happy with the setup, it’s heavier than I’d like. I’m hoping to find a lighter alternative

Always a joy to see my originals framed and displayed in their new home!
