What tripod next?

I agree with what student had mentioned.

Basically all Pana cam arent that heavy. Unless U really see urself moving into heavy camera stage then you may pour the money on good sturdy tripod. For a start, you may use manfrotto with a ball head. This is what Im using though, of course for heavy equipment though.

The buy buy buy virus is bound to have but look far and think properly before you get. Buy what you think it fit for ur usage.

Just my 2cent worth.

i fully agree! i should spread this remedy around...must remember to mention ya

lol get a slik sprint pro! it's light, it's strong, good for wacking people on MRT trains when they don't give way. on top of that I really recommend getting a manfrotto quick release.
A new SSP = $85
A quick release = $30
well within your budget. LOL manfrotto good, coz can use your quick release plate on other pple's tripod if need.

just got that today manfrotto release eh? hmm... have any links or price links i can look into?
