December 2, 2011 at 12:44 pmI have been looking at the Induro Heads for a while. Been trying to decide if I should go with a Really Right Stuff BH55 or an Induro. I have not been able to compare them side by side. Has anyone done that and if so, what do you think?

I just posted a review of the BH55 vs the BHL3. I have both now and really like the BHL3. http://photographyminute.com/induro-bhl3-review-comparison-with-really-right-stuff-rrs-bh-55.htm
