WTB: Tripod for Macro photography

[Markw]

Hi all.
I just purchased a Sigma 180mm F/3.5 EX DG APO HSM Macro for my D300s. I will need a tripod to go along with it. If you have a tripod that will hold this beastly couple steady and will get low enough, please let me know. Under $300 for head and legs.

Thanks,
Mark

What are the minimum heights on those beasts?

I wasn't, but that 105 macro is tempting. Let me think about it

 

[Markw]

Sure thing. Just let me know.

Spot on rabman -- the Manfrotto 055XPROB is outstanding!
