[QUOTE="hark, post: 627154, member: 13196"] I believe I have finally found a carbon fiber tripod that meets all my expectations. My Benro just doesn't go tall enough for some of my needs. I've had a Gitzo 2 series tall/long aluminum tripod that I love and really wanted something comparable in carbon fiber. My 20 year old Bogen-Manfrotto tripod is great (and tall) except it weighs a ton--it's terrific for portraiture or stationary indoor photography, but it's far too heavy to carry. With it's Bogen-Manfrotto head, it weighs at least 10 pounds. So I opted to go with a pre-owned Gitzo carbon fiber tripod that is also tall/long. I realize it isn't good to use a tripod fully extended, but there are times at church when I raise a tripod all the way up and stand on a chair. I have an Induro pan/tilt head to put on it. Here is a stock image of the one I got: [ATTACH type="full" width="60%"]259550._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
