Joby Gorillapod Focus GP8 Flexible

$100.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
i've had the joby gorillapod slr-zoom flexible tripod for about 3 weeks now an i must say: it is the most versatile tripod i've ever used!
from www.amazon.com
this unit (joby gp1-m1en gorillapod gogo flexible tripod with suction cup & 2 adhesive clips) is not going to hold your slr camera; it really won't even hold any but the smallest digital cameras.
from www.amazon.com
i agree with other reviewers that it certainly does not provide the stability of a traditional tripod (with my digital slr,) but it allowed me to take a steady pic at a shutter speed of 5 this

785 Modo

$60.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
even though the manufacturer suggests not using this tripod for slrs, i have no problems using it with my cannon digital rebel slr, even with the 70-300mm telephoto.
from www.amazon.com
dont buy this tripod if you are planning to use it w some heavy slr camera.
from www.amazon.com
but more importantly, i often don't want to advertise that i am carrying a slr by strapping a tripod to my bag or carrying it in my hand.
from www.amazon.com
this tripod is great for small digital cameras or even fair sized slr digitals like the canon rebel.
from www.amazon.com
although it's only rated for compact digicams, it can hold my canon xti slr and 17-50 f/2.8 lens in place without much trouble.

VELBON MONOPOD

$39.00 Est. at Amazon

from A Customer from Minneapolis, MN, clickfrom.buy.com
i had an slr film camera with an old all-metal-and-glass 300mm lens without a support collar mounted on the monopod, and it worked pretty well, although i think that is kind of the limit for the ball
from www.amazon.com
lightweight, portable, fast release.very rigid for most small, medium and lightweight slrs.
from www.amazon.com
i have had some velbon tripods in my past 35mm slr life and found them to be relative well built.
from www.amazon.com
i normally keep my canon xti digital slr mounted on the monopod, to steady the camera for spur of the moment shots.

Slik PRO 700 DX

$120.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.adorama.com
i use it with my canon digital slr.
from www.adorama.com
use it for my rz, 4x5, seitz roundshot, xpan, and digital slr.
from www.amazon.com
it is the first tripod i have owned that allows me to stand up straight and look through the viewfinder of my digital slr.
from www.amazon.com
to support it, the slik pro 700dx amt-titanium alloy tripod is one you should definitely consider.i use mine with a 400mm f/2.8 lens mounted on a digital slr body which weighs a total of 14.5lbs.
from www.amazon.com
i simply can't think of another tripod at twice the price that is built as tough, offers as many features, or anywhere near as much value as the 700dx for an slr shooter.

are you tiered of balancing your slr on a bag, sticks, or just the table for a long exposure?
from www.adorama.com
when you have the extension on, and extended all the way out, the bogen-manfrotto is less sturdy with a slr with a heavy or long lense.
