Subject: [Leica] Arca-Swiss B2 Head comments?

Hello all,

Do you have experience with the B2 Head?

I'm currently using a Manfrotto 229, their biggest pan tilt, on an 075
tripod.  

From what I can find on the net, the B2 looks like it functions like a pan
tilt, ie, it won't flop over.

Can the B2 be used as a free moving gimbal type mount, for following a
moving subject?

Any comments appreciated, or links to reviews.  I've read 'Moose's' review
at http://www.moose395.net/b2.html.

Thanks

Rick Dykstra
