[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 252887, member: 13090"] My thing with tripods is that I have to wonder at what point "light weight" begins to work against me... I mean, the whole point of a tripod is rock-solid stability, right? I guess I have trouble seeing *any* three-pound tripod instilling unshakable (ha!) confidence in my soul. Granted, I'm no expert, nor have I ever played on TV, but when it comes to my tripods I look for solidity of build and ease of operation. When it comes to weight I just flat out suck it up. Tripods are a PITA to haul around, they just are... But if I'm going to take the effort to haul the thing around when I pull it out and expect it to provide a solid platform for me to shoot from, it damn well better do exactly that. I'm not saying a three-pound tripod can't do that, but again... I have to wonder. [COLOR=#ffffff].....[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
