[QUOTE="Claudia!, post: 61970, member: 8139"] LOL... good point. One of the added perks! I still have yet to decide which one to get. I have been doing my non-stop addictive research for a few days. I think it is best for me to go to the Houston Camera Exchange for a more hands on experience. I added a link below of a giottos tripod + ball head that I am interested in. The price is reasonable enough for me.
