I agree with Sudhir. For a recent trip, I had rented a A6600 as a 2nd body for my 24-70 lens. It was such a basic camera and was not user friendly with regards to toggling different settings, etc. You will find it very difficult to have it as a 2nd body and alternate between these two in the field. Try renting once and you’ll see the difference for yourself.

I chose ball head as it’s easy to carry around and takes lesser space in my luggage when travelling. While shooting you have to be very careful with the gear and you have to lock the head if you are taking your hands away. So it has very less flexibility. It works for me as I use it only for my weekend morning photo shoots which last just couple of hours and I take my camera off the tripod most of the time as I keep moving around to shoot birds in flight,
As Sudhir sir said, gimbal and fluid offer great flexibility.
Personally, I am thinking to get one of the other ones when I plan to travel to places like Bharatpur, etc for bird photography where ball head will be a pain to shoot for a long duration.

Wow. Thanks for the super quick response sir. And good to see this in your top 3 (surprised as well). Is Ranthambore and Kabini the other 2 ? Or Corbett. Looking forward to join you in your trips after June this year.

Sir .. I hear a lot about Topazlabs Denoise, Sharpen, etc. Do they really add value to the images during post processing by correcting minor blurs and enhancing sharpness?

Thank you ????

Thank you so much. Sure .. if you can let me know how to go about safari bookings, it will be helpful. I registered in the govt. website but am still wondering if a travel co. will be better (that’s what I did for Ranthambore last year and was very seamless and he got all best zones including zone change a day before while we were there).
Booking in advance is always better in these places.
