Looking for new travel tripod under $200

5 years 7 months ago #601311 by Number 7
I had a small Manfrotto tripod for years that I used for traveling or when I needed something small.  Well that tripod was accidentally dropped, than ran over yesterday.  :pinch:

So, I need to get a replacement.  I don't want to spend much more than $200.  So, what can I get?

G'day '7'

Maybe ... the obvious starter is the Manfrotto catalogue in a place like B&H

Depending on what load you are going to be putting it under, as my neighbour suggests; Manfrotto from B&H or you could look for a well-cared for second hand Carbon BeFree?

In that price range Benro and Sirui could tempt me.

I've been waiting for the Promediagear people to release a travel tripod.  All they have are the big boys right now.  They seem like a better priced Gitzo or RRS.   Actually have you seen that Jobu tripod?

You should look at the Sirui A-1205 travel tripod
