Re: Tripod for 100 bucks?
try out the slik line of tri-pods. i especially like the 700DX anf the 400DX! the 700 is a bit stirdier but weighs a ton while the 400 tips the scales at about 6lbs. plus the 400 comes with the sectional center colum that is an oppional accessory for the 700. this allows you to unscrew the center colum in half and drop the tri-pod down even further, making for interesting flower/ field shots. i just priced the 400 on amazon and it was about a buck-ten, but worth every penny. if you do alot of hiking your sherpa will love you for choosing the llighter of the two. if studio set up are where your tri-pod will see most of its use go for the 700 (about $30 more i think)
