Photo/Video tripod
I'm wondering what tripod to get?
Manfrotto 701HDV,547BK Video Tripod System Kit
This is the one i'm looking at however if i could do cheaper great. This is 275$

It would be for doing video work, probably supporting a 70-200 f/2.8 at the most.

For that matter for supports, i'm also debating on getting a flycam. What would be more benificial? A flycam and my monopod i have now? Or get a Tripod.

Thanks guys. I'm quite new to the support area.

Get a tripod, that one you're looking looks very good.

Don't know about the tripod but I do use the Manfrotto 701HDV for a 77mm Kowa spotting scope and find it very good. If your gear is heavy then a Pro photographer friend of mine finds the Manfrotto 501 pretty good for his 1D4 + 500 F4 IS.

Life is for living, cameras are to capture it (one day I will learn how!).
