Or check ebay for Fancier brand. You can get a CF tripod and a decent head for around $200 or less.

From what I've read, they are very similar (if not better) than the Benro.

I have one and love it, folds up small, and is very light but strong.

Thanks! I just won an Amvona tripod for about $60 including shipping. Next step is to get a ballhead!
