[QUOTE="Bill16, post: 513562, member: 15356"] Gitzo makes some awesome tripods, but they tend to be a higher end brand. But you can find some pretty great Gitzo tripod used on eBay sometimes! I have two right now, and paid $400.00 for one aluminum and $600.00 for the great carbon fiber version of the same tripod! :) The downside is often they come without a ball head, and a good ball head can be just as important. My ARCA SWISS Z1 ball runs $400.00 all on it's own. So though I highly recommend buying the best tripod and ball head you can, the Manfrotto brand my buddy HF recommends might be easier on your budget while still getting the job done! Lol :) [/QUOTE]
