The Sachtler FSB series are for smaller cameras like the HDV, XD-Cam Ex series. I think the FSB 6/8 heads are excellent but the basic Sachtler legs that come with the set could be better - too thin in my opinion and will suffer from a little windup. The Carbon Fibre Speed Lock however is a feature I like very much as it allows you to setup the legs quickly and easily. If you get the right legs to go with the head, you can't go wrong with this setup.
