The "New Gear/Willy Waving" thread

I think that’s the most compact one I’ve seen since mine was discontinued. Mine can go down to under 30cm. I specifically wanted that because an A4 piece of paper is 297mm and I have a messenger bag that I can use and put it into. It’s the length of a magazine and sits sideways inside the bag.

That looks like a great one for my very rare use case. Good value also!

Very good price. Mine was near £200.

The other tripod I had in my mind is by Ulnazi or something like that? They make one that kinda copies the Peak Design at a lower price which came out about 2 years ago.

I also have a Gitzo 1 series for travel/work…took out a mortgage for that one!

I’ve had one of these for 10+ years as my lightweight travel tripod :

Really solidly made, and a good price for CF.

That looks excellent, thank you.

Bristol Cameras have it for £85, i have been offered the Peak Design travel tripod for £150 which seems a steal but it's not the CF edition.

Peak Design tripod turned up over the weekend, I’m very happy with how small it folds down to, fits great into the side of my backpack.
