[QUOTE="STM, post: 121515, member: 12827"] What exactly are you calling "cheap"? Cheap for me may not be cheap for you. If you are looking for a reasonably light weight and [I]reasonably priced[/I] tripod but [I]very capable [/I]tripod[I],[/I] why not look into a Slik U212. I would caution you against going really cheap because if it is flimsy you have wasted your money. I have had the same U212 for over 30 years now and it has been all around the world in every environment imaginable and it is still going strong. It is an outstanding "field" tripod. It will support my 12 pound 600mm f/4 Nikkor MONSTER just fine. You can find them on Fleabay for around a C-note or maybe a little less. [/QUOTE]
