>>I think Carbon Fibre tripod legs are going to be the way to go. If you
exclude
Boron Fibres and some other such exotics, Carbon Fibre has about the highest
affordable stiffness to weight ratio. As a result, vibrations are damped
out very quickly and the frequency of resonance is high.>>
I'm sure you know Gitzo and others have had carbon fiber tripods for a while.
In fact I happen to own a Gitzo CF. As to affordability, well, that's relative.
