duckforce said:what camera are you using?
there is always a option of Carbon fiber tripod.Seeto said:To be honest, a 190PRO is too much to carry around. I have a 190 Classic with a 141RC head. Lugging this around while travelling is a real pain. U're better off getting those tripods with a built-in head and about 18-20 inch long. That's about 40-50cm in length. And also those that can be raised up to about 160cm. That is the perfect travelling tripod for me.
Thank you for your suggestion!Seeto said:To be honest, a 190PRO is too much to carry around. I have a 190 Classic with a 141RC head. Lugging this around while travelling is a real pain.

Go cathay and check all the tripod there but do not buy 1st. :thumbsup:
Check with jack006 pricing on CF tripod MO pricing.

I do not know what ball head you are using? :dunno:
check out the ball head on the same website.Heineken said:I dont have any ball head. wanna buy tripod and ball head all together
Frijj said:Get the Slik Sprint Pro GM, it's more than sturdy for your set-up.
It's within your budget ($88 from MS Color -comes with ball head that can be changed if you want a better one in the future) and sturdy enough for your set-up. The tripod and original ball head weighs about 890g.
If you want to change to a better ballhead, you can try this tripod with the Manfrotto 484 RC2 ball head. This will bump the set-up to about 1kg and will add $70 to the price.
All still within your budget.
