Anybody using one of these?
I'm looking for a stable tripod with following criteria:
Approx 1.5m extended height (I like the camera to be around eye height with legs fully out, makes it nice and quick, at least on flat ground)
No centre column
Ideally 3 leg sections, again for speed and stability.
Nice thick section legs
Weight and price are factors as always but emphasis is mainly on being sturdy.
I have quite a short shortlist. There are a couple of Gitzo models on there but both around £700+ so would need to wait a couple of months I think. I know the Gtizo's would certainly do the job. A couple of feisel option around £400-500 seem very highly regarded.
Then I spotted the Benro C3770TN which is more like £300-400. Reviews seem good but I don't want to get this wrong so I'd love to hear the experience of others.
