Nice, I've been looking for tripod as well. Just ordered one from Amazon. Hope it is a sturdy one.

[ssrprelude]

Which did you get?

[Hangman]

I got a Ravelii. Its one of the cheaper ones from Amazon. Its got some good reviews, so I figure I would try it out.
If its doesn't work, then I'll have to looks for one thats better.

Should of get the C2681T

The carbons ones are too pricey lol. I'm not sure the advantage of the carbon vs aluminum for the benro. Weight difference is like 1lbs.

lol..less than 1lb...so ya...kinda not really a lot of advantage....
but i got my C2681 from china...it was actually cheap than the price of the A2681/91 here in the states...
benro are just too expensive over here lol...
but I do prefer the 2681 over 2691, 2681 is more stable while the 2691 is more travel friendly...
i rarely travel with tripod lol...unless a short trip that I drive a car...

Benro used to be cheaper when people were just selling outta hong kong, but then benro started official distribution channels in us and Canada the prices jumped up, almost double i think. But for the money, it's still hard to beat.

Whens the next time you're going to china. I want a ton stuff please get it for me! Lol. How much did the benro cost over there? Please bring me back stufffffrfffddddffffd
