"quick" plate one are more expensive .. (slide in and out)

But those with a smaller plate, (clip in) are not that expensive.

You don't need a heavy duty one, so metal tripod is ok, dont need carbon.

My favourite tripod is still my 20 yr old broken Cullmann one ..  ^_^

thanks thanks

I actually also went to london drugs today to check on the tripods
they have 2 velbon's that are in $89. One looks a bit more stylish, lighter (1.3kg), holds 2kg. The other one is a bit bigger, heavier (1.49kg), and holds 3kg

I was about to buy the lighter one
but my friend said I can always wait till it goes on sale cuz he said london drugs sometimes have very very good deal

你好似有一枝Canon白色大炮, 你會唔會用大炮去打雀(影雀仔，麻鷹)，如果會可能買支heavy duty會好D。

2KG should be ok ..  but to be safe, buy the 3KG one la, unless you need to put your tripod in/on your backback .. otherwise, a bit extra weight is ok, at the end of the day, I rarely use those carbon tripod, not much different in weight IMO, and I ususually just throw my tripod to trunk anyway...
