Tripod

[s0lar]

Hi All, I am looking to get a tripod for my d5000. Suggestions? What should I be looking out for?

How heavy is your biggest lens (currently owned or planned for)?

And what are you willing to spend? Manfrotto make some of the best tripods there are BTW.

Thanks for the responses, unfortunately been offline. Out of desperation I bought a nice little tripod at Game for R450 odd. I realize its not pro but for the price seems to be a winner.

Thanks again.

FYI, i bought a Manfrotto 055XPROB and 322RC2 head for R2500, incl shipping. Received it yesterday. About Rk1.7 less than the local online pricing. The guy has a large Manfrottp selection.
