other than gitzo any other recommendations? gitzo traveller ex man
yep yep my set up gonna be light, most prob a UWA and camera body only. Cos maybe hiking mt fuji in julycalculate what's the heaviest setup load you need to put on a tripod when you go overseas. if you're not a nature geek, you probably aren't going to bring big long lenses, so your heaviest setup might just be very light and you can just go for one that comes with the tripod head attached. that might help you widen your option to some cheaper CF tripods.

not confirmed whether will be hiking in Fuji but probably will Will update you.
This time should be going from 30 June - 14 July. Tentatively is this time frame. The weather very hot right?
what is the folded lenght of your gitzo?
if small enough, can sell to me?
then gotta bring protective clothing.. geez gotta bring so much things up, i heard the things up there cannot buy one, very expensive.yes, very hot.
hiking is usually overnight, so that can see sunrise in morning. but mountain top is quite chilly in night and early morning.
please lor, i was going around with 055ProB with 488RC0
