Hey guys. 
I'm new to this forum. And i was wondering if you could help me out. I want to purchase a tripod but i'm not sure which one to get. I'm a freelance commercial and editorials photographer and i also do travel photography. I currently use the Canon 77D with 24-70mm f/2.8L ii, 50mm f/1.2. 
Can someone help me with narrowing down from the plathora of options out there?! 
Thanks!!

200 euros?  If you stretch your budget a little bit, you can get a 3 legged thing Brian.

Anything from 3 legged thing is good for the money.  Jump on Amazon or B&H and search for the name.  You'll be happy.
