I've wasted a lot of money on tripods and ball-heads both and would tell you to budget AT LEAST $300 for this. I know, it sounds like a lot. A good, all-around tripod is the Manfrotto MT055XPRO3 055 and it will set you back around $250. As for ballheads... Hmmm... the Oben BE-117 would be a good choice and would come in at around $80 or so. There are other options of course, lots of them, but that would be decent setup that would last you a gpod long while....</blockquote>
