Thanks for the photos Scott. I see the legs are captive which is good. It looks as if the tripod head won't receive an EQ5 mount unfortunately - an oversight on both this and the porta mount IMHO, as it reduces flexibility. Much better to have a standard tripod head that suits a variety of mounts.

Phil, the porta mount has the bonus of the vixen dovetail saddle, but the tripod looks much sturdier on this GSO mount. It's strange that GSO didn't include a vixen style saddle on their mount.
