[QUOTE="Bill16, post: 248230, member: 15356"] If you need a cheap price, but something reliable, you might want to look for a used tripod. I bought a SLIK brand carbon fiber tripod for $45.00 that works fine for most types of shots(except low macro shots). Mine has more of a video head on it, but it works fine for DSLR cameras as long as your not needing a super fast setup. The head is a fluid head and isn't a single nob adjust, like the ball heads are. But it is very strong and no issues with slipping. So my point is that you might find a used tripod that will work fine, until your ready to save up for a higher end tripod. :) I'm going to be looking for a higher end tripod myself for my macro needs, when I can afford it! :D [/QUOTE]
