So I have been looking for a decent payable tripod for a bit and stumbled across this OPTEKA CFT80 which the price of has been lowered from $300 to $100.
Amazon.com: Opteka CFT80 65" 8x Carbon Fiber Tripod with TH60 Quick Release Ball Head (18.75" folded): Camera & Photo
Though I have also seen others around this price, let me line them up.
Amazon.com: Ravelli Professional 65" Carbon Fiber 3 Axis Ball Head Camera Video Photo Tripod with Quick Release Plate and Carry Bag: Camera & Photo
Amazon.com: Polaroid 65" Pro Carbon Fiber Tripod With Removeable Ballhead Includes Deluxe Tripod Carrying Case For Digital Cameras & Camcorders: Camera & Photo
there are some others as well. I know I won't be getting a Gitzo quality tripod but I can't afford more at this time.
IF you had to choose one of these, which one would it be ?
PS.: my current gear consists of a D5100, 18-55mm and a 35mm prime with a 55-300mm possibly being bought soon.
