New hardware - Gitzo 3530LS

Upgrading my camera setup again.
Now the ultimate in tripod /support system- the GITZO -
"Le choix de professionnels"
Initially ordered thro Shashiski, but they have no stock of this Carbonfibre 6X systematic tripod. I have no choice but to order it from elsewhere - NatureScape.Net, USA













The consignment arrived at KLIA Sepang within three days, but Malaysia Kastam decided to detained it (for four days)


I have to fax the invoice that shows it was a tripod / camera accessories that should be tax free.
Pos Malaysia was assigned as a forwarding agent.
In the end, no tax was charge and only have to pay RM 49.50 for service charge to them.





This is the final result of my canon 400D + 400mm f5.6 + Jobu Junior 2 (& L plate) + Gitzo 3530LS Carbonfibre tripod.
Complete with dark forest camo - ready for battle!.
Now if the resulting birds photo are blur or bad, the faults are not with camera or supporting tripod, but the one behind it --> that ME!
