>If weight's an issue buy a Gitzo carbon fiber. From B&H Photo:
Gitzo G1128 Mk2 Mountaineer Sport Carbon Fiber (Compact) Tripod
Legs (Rapid Column) Supports 11 Lbs
Price: $511.95
The next size up, the Mountain Reporter Mk2 (G1228) , supports up to 13
pounds and is a tad longer collapsed and a bit heavier, but still
a superb travelling tripod. Attach a small, light ball head and you're in
business. B&H price: $652.00.
As do all Gitzo products, these tripods com with a lifetime warranty, and
like all Gitzo products function as in a dream.
