What to look for buying a tripod?
There are different types of cheap and expensive tripods available for sale on auction sites and street main, but I do not know what to look for price, quality or do. I have Nikon D50 digital SLR camera.
Verify that you can do whatever you want. * You can support the weight of the D50 + lens heavyest'll never use * if they fold small enough to fit in a backpack? * If you reach the eye level to the maximum height? * You must be strong enough to pull down a cliff? * You must have a spherical head (simple), or will have want something triggers, quick release plates, etc. sepperately? * Etc. You can get tripods for $ 20 and can go 1000. If you only use once in a blue moon, get something around $ 60. Bogen / Manfrotto has good things and SLIK.
C-Loop – How strong is the camera tripod mount? We pull a truck to find out.
