    I've been looking for a light sturdy travel tripod too.

    So far this has been the closest I can find to meet my needs.

    Maybe it might meet your needs.

    I have bought a campod, beanbag type which is wonderful and am borrowing a monopod to see if I can benefit from it.
    Thanks for the help everyone.

    Cheers

    Kiwi while others may disagree but what I've found very good is a Jolby Gorrilapod Focus with one of the smaller Manfrotto ball heads. While its not as good as a proper tripod, it has served me well many times and it easily solid enough for long exposures. Assuming what you mount it to is solid.

    Hi all,
    I recently received a Nikon D90 as a gift from my family. I have been a very casual photographer recently despite being very active 20 years ago. I started with a Pentax ME and during the 90's reengaged with a Nikon F50.
    I am looking to purchase additional lenses (to the standard lens supplied) and possibly a replacement to my 30 year old Velbon VEB-3 tripod (aluminium and heavy).
    Any suggestions on an appropriate combination?
    My interests are; scenery, portraits, action/sport, close ups.
    Thanks

    I have a Manfrotto #055 which becomes a monopod when I extend just one leg...

    Hi Everyone ,

    Has anyone got or heard reports about the Jusino tripods, out of China I think. I did a search and they dont look to bad.

    Cheers Fisher
