In stills photography, we don’t want the camera to move. When shooting movies, we want smooth camera movement for that professional look (though, I have to admit there’s way too much of that lately and, if overdone, it gets distracting real fast). Up until now, this was not a problem since you’d have a tripod for your DSLR and one for your video camera. Now that more and more photographers are using their HD DSLR to also film videos, the problem of having a tripod head that can serve both purposes arise. Manfrotto provides a solution in the Photo-Movie Head combo, such as the Manfrotto 055 Hybrid Head Q5.
