What tripod would you buy if you could have the tripod of your dreams? Do you have a favorite brand you would automatically go to, and a favorite style?
Well my choice would be a Gitzo systematic traveler! It is a compact but very strong tripod without a center pole, with a max capacity of 88lbs! There is even a cool looking ball head designed for it, but I prefer the Arca Swiss Z1DP ball head! I believe this is a great all around tripod, and especially great for landscapes being such a ridged tripod so a regular wind won't be such a serious issue! A good center weight should take care of a moderate wind, and then your set!
