Hey guys! I usually don't like asking questions, so I wait till I absolutely feel its necessary. I need to buy a Tripod. Sounds easy ehh? Well I have a budget of ~100 dollars.
I know for sure I won't be getting Carbon Fiber, so aluminum is my best bet. Weight does not have to be a factor in my decision.
Im very mixed on Ballhead and 3 way. I just need one that can take portraits along with landscapes.
I do not use heavy telephoto lenses, and for a while I'll be using a set up thats a little under 3 pounds. Later on though I plan to buy the model that successes the D90.
Here is what I have been looking at.
Davis and Sanford Voyager Lite
I saw it a few nights ago, but I saw the version with the 3 way head, so I was a bit bummed. I was looking through the May 2010 issue of "outdoor photographer" today for tripod reviews and it was mentioned, but mentioned with a ball head on. I couldn't find it AT ALL today. Then while looking on BH for the 3 way head one, I found the ball version so I am extremely happy.
Do you think this is a good deal?
Thanks!
