Hello there!
Here it is, another thread asking for help choosing a tripod hahaha... Anyway, I've been reading and doing my research but still cannot decide, so I kinda need help on that if you please
- The weight is important to me, cause I travel quite a bit and mostly like to go shoot outside. So I'd go with carbon fiber, but the price almost doubles -at least- here in my city. But, on the other hand, not too sure about the aluminium ones for the weight.
- I'd like to get the head and legs separated, so I can choose the head I want which is a ball head BTW. But I understand that option probably exceeds my budget.
- Locking system for the leg sections I think both flip-locks and twist-locks would be ok... although maybe the twist-locks sound more interesting for long hikes
Now, it's hard to say a budget cause the prices here are different than in the US, but let's say 400-500U$s and praying for it to be more around 300U$s haha...
Any suggestions? I've got one or two in mind, but I'd prefer not to focus on those and rather hear alternatives.
I appreciate you taking the time to read another boring post about someone asking for a tripod.
Thanks!!
Regards,
Martin
