Sachtler or Vinten on the high end. Miller or Cartoni if you have a bit
less to spend. Bogen/Manfrotto if you're on a budget.
And don't let anyone kid you. You get what you pay for. My Sachtlers cost
$6500 12 years ago, and they are still going strong. They replaced my
Bogens which cost me $800, and lasted only about 2 years before wearing out.
