G'Morning,
For those who are using or buy many types of tripods, so far what is the tripod that you have, feel like it is like 孫悟空 staff/stick?
When not in used, the tripod can be folded up so small that can tuck inside, say ThinkPad notebook bag. When in used, can even hold as heavy as Canon 1D including the 600mm F4 lens.
Ok I have exaggerated. The bag maybe unrealistic small and the gear too big and heavy. I just bring up for sizing purpose.
I like to take photos after work. My last trip to Shanghai, I have to bring tripod because I went to the Bund to shoot night scene.
As it is a business trip, I like bring my photo gears as inconspicuous as possible. Nor the bag is too big to put to the overhead air cabin compartment.
In my last trip, I have to dropped my work stuff in the hotel and collected my tripod for the shoot.
Ok some of you may say, use monopod, use string to form a triangle with your 2 feet and the camera lens. use bean bags, mini tripod......etc.
All the places I will be going, I am going for the first time and I don't have the luxury of time. At most, 6 or 8 hours before I take the last flight home.
i like to spend the limited time to take photos instead of looking for ways to improvise.
Getting those mobile phone camera add on lenses or filters from TaoBao will be my very last, last option.
I am using M4/3 gears. The heaviest setup is about 3kg. My eye level is 1.6m.
For Biz trip, I am using company's issued Dell notebook backpack, (0.4Hx0.36Wx0.12D)m.
Please share.
Thank You
