Hi,

I am considering a tripod for my Setup. However, I am lost between brands. Any one has recommendation for good tripods that are below $200? and it can hold approx 10kg weight?
 

Can you please type in the search function 'tripod'.There are lots and lots of threads on tripods already.
 

wow, a tripod that takes 10kg under 200. u probably be looking at some really heavy tripod if u can even find one that meet this 2 criteria.
 

For that pricing and those requirements, you can only go aluminium. And you can only go the cheaper brands too.

This is one. Looks like you have to top up around 30-40 more.

yeah, under 200 you must be prepared to bear the weight of the tripod, carrying around such an heavy tripod will definitely turn you off in the long run...
 

up your budget by $100+ and u can go for Sirui's carbon fibre series and the load weight u want.

tripod is a long term investment.
