Been looking around at Tripods and Monopods. Benbo & Gitzo seen to have good reviews, and i like the way the Benbo Trekker mk2 can be positioned ?

Anyone suggest any other good makes or Pro's n Con's.... cheers ;)
 
Well i'll be using it with my Slr, for both indoor/studio work and outside. So i need something sturdy but lightweight and also something that is easy to use in awkward positions.... not much really :D

Thats why i was looking more at the Benbo Trekker mk2... because it seems to fit the bill.... and has good reviews?
Budget wise ...hmmm - Just bought a new lense today so about £90 for the Tripod & Monopod i have no idea yet :confused:

Well i could bin the Monopod idea atm and go to about £160 for the Tripod? Would that be enough for something decent?
 
OK....Well i have been buttering up the missus, and she has agreed to let me spend "what i want" :D


So, i have been looking at Manfrotto 055 cl pro - looks nice.
I have decided against the Benbo Trekker as it sounds to fiddly !!!
But if i have a free rain on the choice, what about a Benro A128 + Head. I know there more expensive but are they any better - as Matt says Manfrotto are basically an entry level into the high end range - what about Benro?

So it's dont to the Manfrotto 055cl +Head

or

Benro A128 + Head

;)
