    Used to be Bogen or Bogus....

    Steady, Lightweight, Affordable (pick two)... and a good strap or bag can save your back....

    ...But there are better cheap ones now.... head more important than legs, and you've got to try them yourself to get a feeleing..... I use a Gitzo head on Bogen/Manfrotto(same company) legs....

    There are some cheaper tripods that are actually pretty good these days, but anything really light is either expensive or wobbly...and I have a huge, heavy old Majestic for long shutter speed work... used to use it for large format...

    Make darn sure the QR plate doesn't slip in the head.
