tripod is something that is super important to me.
therefore, i will not get cheap and not long lasting tripods like jusino and benro. the older manfrotto is good but their quality is dropping nowadays.

believe me, get the gitzo traveller series. small, stabil and it last longer than an average human being. but expensive though

I can't agree less!! Tripods are very important. But it depends where you really wanna take your camera too. Don't need such an expesnive one or heavy one if you don't use it that often. It depends on your camera size too. you want one that can support up to 8-10 pounds

hei guys, is it worth paying double the price for a carbon fiber tripod?
my case is Jusino AX254, alu rm3xx vs carbon rm6xx. Saving of 200 grams...

Hey guys, spend a few hours in reading all the recommendations. I found out that Jusino is the best choice. My budget is around RM350~RM400(MAX). I just want to ask is there still any other options at this range...my gear is nikon D7000 with kit lens. Intend to upgrade later.

what's the advantage of 3 leg vs 4 leg? i should think 3 legged tripods should provide better stability?

i believe it is not so called 3 leg or 4 leg, but 3 section or 4 section.
The advantage for 4 section is the smaller folded dimension. Of course 3 section is more stable.
Please correct me if it is wrong.

oops my bad. i meant 'section' instead of legs.


Added on September 28, 2011, 2:17 pmthen what about the difference between 'clip' lock and twist lock? which is more durable in the long run?

looking through shashinki's catalogue of jusino tripods, i'm kinda contemplating between ax253 and ax284.. hmm.. i have a 450d with kitlens atm, planning to get a 18-200mm in the near future.

i think i'd settle for ax253, 1 section less to setup, plus the difference in length is only 5cm.

any shop in kl/pj which carries this in store?

MY tripod is not with me now, but if i remember correctly, the short center column should be hollow without spring hook. you don't really need that function when using the short center column anyway, so you?
