Even if I ever get around to installing a "SteadyFast" system to help with the rocking motion of the 5er, I will still use the Tripod.
I have found two great uses for the tripod.
One: The tripod will prevent me from hitting my head on the kingpin when I am in the front basement area. (Don’t ask)
Two: The tripod also prevents me from getting grease from the king pin on my clothes. (Don’t ask)
I would not go out and buy a tripod if I had the "Steadyfast" system on the 5er. But since I own the tripod already I would still use the tripod for the above two reasons.
