Hey all

I need some tripod advice. I have around £100 budget for a tripod which will need to support a 5Dmkiii and a max weight lens of a 70-300L (2.2 kg total).

So far I've been looking at the limited run Giottos MT 8223-50 which is constructed of carbon fibre and seems to be pretty decent. I can't find anywhere local though to have a look at one in the flesh. It's low weight is very appealing.

I've also been looking at Redsnapper tripods, but there's so much choice with different combinations of legs and heads that I don't really know where to start. I've read that the RS 234 are the better of the legs?.. Or was it the RS233 :o

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

£100 for the tripod alone or with the head too?

Looking at around £100 for both tripod and head.
