randy_tho Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 (edited) I'm looking for a tripod that will see likely just light use. Probably make some night shots and some other stuff. I'd like to keep it under 30 bucks. Been looking at sunpak. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00007E8D...5Fencoding=UTF8 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00009UT3...5Fencoding=UTF8 Anyone have some experience and can make a recomendation?

Pink Floyd Veteran Posted March 12, 2006 Veteran Share Posted March 12, 2006 well, try to buy a light weight tripod because when you travel with it, you gonna get tired and wont bring with you anymore the only reason why you could buy a more heavy weight tripod is when shooting during winter with wind!

Rogo Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Are all tripods compatible with all cameras? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diffused Mind Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Are all tripods compatible with all cameras? Every camera and movie camera i've seen has the same place on the bottom of the unit to screw on the tripod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randy_tho Posted March 14, 2006 Author Share Posted March 14, 2006 (edited) By light use I meant I won't be using it a lot. :cool: As in I don't need anything top of the line but I don't want something that will break for no reason. :) I'm thinking one of the ones above. The only difference I can tell is the one is spread out more. As for camera compatibility I was under the impresson that the only thing to worry about is the weight of the camera. well, try to buy a light weight tripod because when you travel with it, you gonna get tired and wont bring with you anymore the only reason why you could buy a more heavy weight tripod is when shooting during winter with wind!

super_evil_8_ball Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Well, hate to say it, but have you checked Wal-Mart?? I bought a $20 no name tripod that suits my uses just fine. I don't use it all that often but when I do it has yet to let me down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randy_tho Posted March 15, 2006 Author Share Posted March 15, 2006 I try to stay away from Walmart as much as possible. :) I just ordered this one from Amazon. Seemed to get good ratings by people. Digital Concepts TR-60N 57" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
