I owned the B-1 and sold it.. I personally prefer the three-section 1227 to the four-section 1228. The former is substantially sturdier, though not quite as compact. Still, 1227 attaches without problems to my pack. Oh, I use a large Leitz ball head. The combination is more than adequate for my lightweight 4x5 as well.
