Hi,
I have for a while been borrowing my dads Slik 500g tripod. Although its excellent for macro work as its small, stable and lightweight, I want something a bit more robust for my landscapes as I mostly shoot handheld at the moment, these usually come out fine but as I like slower films like Velvia 50 it does mean that the slower shutter speeds are usually not as straight as would I like sometimes.
I have been looking at some cheaper tripods under the £35 mark. I know that I won't get the, best for this price, but I don't want to have to spend too much.
Two tripods that I have been looking at are the Slik F135 and the Camlink TP2800. Both are pretty much the same but the Camlink model is slightly taller and has a ballast hook. I can get either for about £20. Theres not very much info on the Slik model such as the diameter of the legs which is 28mm on the Camlink (i.e TP2800 = 28mm)
Camlink TP2800
Slik F153
What do you think??
