I bought myself one of those Manfrotto 190's yesterday in the Amazon sale, and at the time didn't realise it didn't come with a head! Doh! Anyway, Raymond Lin kindly recommended this magnificent looking chap here :- http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0049F327U/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00
but I can't really justify that sort of expenditure at the moment.

So is there something comparable that costs less I am wondering?

It needs to be a ball head.

Cool! I did see that actually, and was thinking about it.

Great stuff, that's just what I wanted to hear, thanks a lot.

I've gone for Seraph's recommendation so if it's pants I will blame him

Seriously, thanks for the advice. I'm sure that will fit the bill for the time being.
