LINHOF pro tripod for medium format

zlimmer · 16th June 2009

Came across a shop at Chinatown Point # 02-13 called Fotografix Marketing offering Linhof Lightweight Pro Tripod with Profi Ballhead II for $ 785 only .
This is the Best of the Best and made in Germany and now very limited !

It is a great buy as this is a very good tripod for my Hasselblad H3D 31 .
Mr. Wong , the owner , also has a lot of Hasselblad accessories .

He is also has the GITZO Classic Geared Centre column aluminium ( Very rare made in France !) with the Series 1 , 3 section original GITZO classic at $300 and
Series 3 , 4 section original GITZO classic at only $ 500 nett .

No credit cards or Nets , just cash .

Just sharing my rare find.

Also heard mr.Wong is ordering Gossen Lightmeters ( Germany )from Shriro who just took the distributorship . A super-light-weight Digiflash at 1.5 oz weight goes for $ 350 nett and a DigiProFlash F is $ 500 only .

In Singapore Uncle Wong is likely the best place to be for 'exotic' photo equipment. Always worth to drop by while in the neighborhoud. If you don't know where his shop exactly is it will take you a while to find it though, quiet tough hidden in the corner there ..

Linhof probably makes the best traditional tripods around .
No gimicky carbon fibre stuff .
Just good old smooth precision machining .
If it can take a Large format in almost any awkward twisted position ....
Hmmm really a good buy .
