Slik PRO 700 DX

$120.00 Est. at Amazon

from "brenton", www.bhphotovideo.com
i mainly picked this one because it could support my gripped 40d, 70-200 2.8is and flash with no problem.
from www.adorama.com
the tripod is sufficiently strong to hold a pair of 25x100 binoculars, weighing over 8 pounds with added bracket and reflex sighting device added on.d.
from www.bhphotovideo.com
i bought the 40d and 70-200mm 2.8is (from b&h also) and wanted a sturdy tripod capable of holding the weight and this 700dx is perfect!
from www.bhphotovideo.com
i always used bogens in the past, they were the only reliable instruments available in the 80's.

Manfrotto 055XB

$163.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
i use it with the manfrotto 488rc2 midi ball head and rc2 rapid connect system (3157n)and the manfrotto tripod bag 80cm which serves as excellent protection and an easy means of carry.
from www.amazon.com
manfrotto tripod bag padded 80cm or manfrotto 3044 carrying long strap - carrying strap - gray
from www.amazon.com
i am about 5'8" and was just at eye level with the camera when the tripod was at its full height (without raising the center column).
from www.amazon.com
i guard my remarks because each and every single tripod i own (even $800+ carbon fiber legs) have a relatively weak center column.
from www.amazon.com
its rock solid (enough to hold my 30d w/ battery grip, 580ex, and 70-200 f/2.8), very adjustable, and a reasonable weight (the people saying its too heavy are just weak).

Sunpak 8001UT

$34.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
the sunpak 8001ut tripod is a great product.
from www.amazon.com
i consider my purchase of the sunpak 8001ut tripod to be an incredible purchase, well worth the price of approx $40.00.
from www.amazon.com
when you flip it out to a right sideways angle, it doesn't go all the way to 90 degrees; it's more like 88 degrees, which isn't a huge deal, and you can compensate in other ways, but i'd sure prefer
from www.amazon.com
it firmly supports my digital rebel, sigma 70-300mm apo, and 28-70mm f/2.8 ex.
from www.amazon.com
sunpak 8001ut is more than steady, it is solid.

Pro Line Dolica AX620B100 Proline Aluminum

$51.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
you'd look kind of silly using it with a f2.8, 300mm dslr system, but you'd also look just as silly using a $500 carbon graphite, 7 foot tall gitzo with a tiny canon elph mounted on it.
from www.amazon.com
the frame is metal, the fittings are solid and it holds my 50d and the heavy 24-70mm f/2.8 lens i use for portraits.
from www.amazon.com
if you height is below 5'8'' this is a good tripod.
from www.amazon.com
this tripod is able to support my t1i+battery grip+70-200l 2.8is (using the tripod collar) in the landscape and portrait positions.
from www.amazon.com
folded height: 22.8"

from www.amazon.com
i am amazed how light this tripod is, and yet how rock solid it is with my nikon d300 with an 80-400mm zoom lens.
from www.amazon.com
i like the lightweight feel of the tripod and the solid ballhead that i bought along with this tripod but the plate that came with the ballhead couldn't hold my d200 with 17-55mm f2.8 on a vertical
