Title: Tripod/Head choice for air travel
Post by: BobH on November 30, 2007, 05:53:33 pm
Hi,

I am looking for suggestions for an air travel friendly tripod/head that will fit 'normal' checked baggage and still support a 40D-400/5.6 for stable imaging. My Manfrotto 055 is looking a bit too large to be Zodiac friendly at the other end of the trip.

Any suggestions on 3/4 leg extensions and accompanying heads will be greatly appreciated.

My general choice would be aluminum as I would rather put the expense of a carbon fibre tripod into another lens.
