[QUOTE="videolife, post: 526223, member: 41526"] Hello everyone, Can you all please recommend a good tripod (less than $400 all in - i.e. tripod + head) for my D7100? I'll be using an 18-140mm lens and a 55-300mm lens. Having searched the boards a bit, I came across certain posts that mentioned how the tripod needs to be able to carry the weight of a heavy "300mm lens" (amateur here, so I didn't know that) and so I'd like some advice in this area. These two pieces below were chosen solely because of what another member uses himself and wonder if they're good enough? Or are there "better" options for out there for the price?
