[QUOTE="Geoffc, post: 243191, member: 8705"] I recently looked into this for a trip to the states in June. The smallest tripod that would actually be worth having was the Velbon UT-43 at around £110 and 29cm folded. I ended up with the Benro travel angel II at around 40cm and £170. I did lots of research and this is where I ended up. As for the Gorilla pod, I got one free with the bag I bought to take on the trip in June. I wouldn't risk my iphone on it!! In fact if you pay the postage you can have it. I would be surprised if you find something in your budget that's actually worth taking up luggage space with based on my own research, as a cheap floppy tripod is probably worse than no tripod as you get lured into a false sense of security. One other point, some security people think tripods/monopods are dangerous weapons and may not let you carry it on board. [/QUOTE]
