Partiality it!
I've had two heads in the background. The first was the basic head that came on a cheap tripod that I got when I was a teenager and was really meant to be tempered to with a video camera. The next time around (about 15 years ago) I purchased a Bogen 3021 tripod and what I consideration would be a very flexible (how can you go wrong with a name like that).

The most excellently head in the world
Really irreplaceable item for anybody with large (and heavy) telephoto lenses. Once set it does not move, colour...stays solid. Excellent product
