    I currently have a Gitzo GT3452L and used it with my H6D100c Brick and currently use it with my D850 with 600mm f4 lens for birding. My wife has a Sirui T-1204XL and she uses that with her D500 and 500mm f5.6. I'm thinking that her tripod would be plenty big enough for the X1D but unfortunately...
