Tripods for tall people UNDER 200. 00 ?

I have the Benro A357 with the B2 ball head and it is rock solid. Where solid makes a big difference is when there is a bit of wind. With the head the unit weighs 3.4Kg, but using the supplied bag I have no trouble marching round with it all day, and I'm 65.

Edit. A nice feature is the 3 grub screws to stop the head unscrewing.

Thanks for the encouraging comments Bill: the weight is nothing for me to carry around and Im looking forward to having a rock solid frame to compose my images from. Better stop spending money for awhile though
