Pro Media Gear travel tripod?

Are you aware if these guys make a smaller tripod than their 34mm or 42mm?  Something that would be classified as a travel tripod?

You mean narrower legs? Apparently not, after looking at their website.

I'm a fan of Three Legged Thing, which has a range of excellent equipment. Often lighter and smaller (folder) than many other products, and quite reasonably priced. If you're not willing to get something robust, look at Sirui and K&H for travel models.

For certain situations you're going to need to worry about weighting it, no matter what brand you get. High wind will shake any tripod, for example, so you need to plan for adding weight in the field. In which case differentiation between $500 and $1000 tripods quickly goes out the door. IMO.

I could be wrong.

No, that's all they make.  3 and 4 section of each 34mm and 42mm.

Not from Pro Media gear.  Have you looked at the Gitzo 1545t?
