tripod-case?

SLR first timer here, need lots of advice but for now... I need a tripod, and after looking in the web I found this

Come with that cool backpack, question, If you have b-pack like that, does the tripod fits in the b-pack or you need to carry it in its own case?

Thanks in advance.....

I dont think that model of tamrac would hold a tripod. try to checkout the lowepro mini trekker aw, really nice bag and would also hold a tripod. i got mine off ebay.

Unless you have a super small, cheap (read: should not trust your DSLR on it) tripod, in most cases a tripod will not fit in a backpack like that.

Most people who want to carry a tripod with them and a backpack (myself included) get a backpack that has a built in external tripod holder like this:

I have owned and really liked the Lowepro Flipside 300 (pictured) and the Lowepro Flipside 400 AW.

THANKS!... so is this a good deal?

just another silly question, does this tripod look like the head will flit to the side so I will be able to take portrait pictures?

Yes it does, but that tilt handle/bar will probably be up in the air when you do.

thanks again ben_r_

No problem.

Just as a little side note though... I personally wouldnt trust that silly little tripod too long. If I were you I would start doing whatever you have to do to upgrade to a nicer say perhaps Bogen tripod as soon as you can. Think about it, all the money you have put into your camera is sitting on ~$25 tripod.

Just food for thought and because Id hate to see you come back here witha horror story thread and pictures showing your camera on the floor and busted.
