[QUOTE="gqtuazon, post: 435146, member: 6573"] Perfectly understandable by what you mean. However, I normally do not suggest something that I have not tried nor would not trust if it was supporting my camera equipment. I'm quite certain that the OP may not buy what I suggest here but at least, someone gave him some other options since some of us have been through this stage. Some may like your suggestion and some may regret following your suggestion later on in the future. I tend to follow the "buy it right the first time" idea but to each is own. My suggestions here are free and there is no obligation by anyone to follow it. A $170 tripod and ballhead may be satisfactory for now but later on it will start sagging and wont stay where you want to position it which may lead to another upgrade. I'd rather have an over kill tripod and ballhead since I rely on these support equipment to handle my expensive investment. Of course, if you trust what you recommend with your own equipment, then by all means, go ahead. It's all good. [/QUOTE]
