    Great tips Skyler! My hardest part of flatlays are definitely getting them 100% straight. It's like every time I try to adjust the ballhead a tiny bit I loosen the 'adjusting handle/knot', move a milimeter and tighten the 'adjuster' again - and then it 'falls' into place with the weight of the camera and still not straight. Any tips? Kind regards, Susanne

    Hello Sir. Any advise on a tripod ball head strong enough to hold the Canon 1DXMKII with a Tamron 24-70 Lens for flat lays? I usually use a tripod video head because no ball head that I have can hold such heavy setup steady.

    Oh I don’t mean big rolls of backgrounds lol I mean for your flat lays. I noticed you have smaller ones that you laid down. I have some that are made of water proof/resistant paper and I wanted to have a way of storing or traveling with them without damaging during transport. Anyway, just wondering if you had something like that. Thanks for your reply!
