>>293790 If you have money and want something better [by better, I mean lighter/stronger/less vibration] than manfrotto, go for a Gitzo. They're...very, very nice. Too pricy for me though (Call it $450-$650 for tripod w/o head). Manfrotto's heads are better than Gitzo's, imo, unless weight is your only concern.
Manfrotto makes a really nice range. Choice really depends upon your requirements in these areas: 1. How much weight do you want it to hold? 2. How much do you care about how much it weighs? 3. How tall does it need to be? 4. How much can you spend?
You can pick up something like a Manfrotto 190 (or if you're willing to carry a bit more weight to get a bit more height/stability, an 055) for quite a reasonable price. [Something like $140-200.]
Then you need to decide on what kind of head you want. Myself, I like the cheapie Manfrotto 804RC2 3-Way Head, but I really, really need 3-way locking and have no need for speed, really. [Head's, what, $80?]
