[QUOTE="gqtuazon, post: 127842, member: 6573"] With that budget in mind, don't expect the following to have all four factors which includes: cheap, lightweight, solid construction, and compact. You will need to compromise on one of them unless you want to increase your budget so that you don't get disappointed like what happened to you before. $500 to $600 will be more decent depending on your height and how heavy your equipment are. Induro makes pretty good tripod and ball heads too. Manfrotto is also good but I don't like their ballhead or proprietary quick release mount. I personally use a Gitzo series 3 and Arca Swiss Z1 ballhead which holds my equipment very well. I feel much more comfortable with my set-up without worrying about it failing and dropping my camera equipment.
