For those with very light
weight cameras up to 7.7 lbs.
'Medium
Digital' tripod with ball head.
The NEW Bogen 'Medium Digital'
Tripod
with ball head and quick release. Only $119.95.
(Stock #97816 )
A better tripod only because of the Manfrotto
'ball head'. The tripod pictured is one of the lighter weight
units and is good for any camera, 35mm or small med. format, up to 7.7 lbs
in weight.
It's very sturdy for it's size, very light (only 3.1
lbs.), has the
suggested ball head- and now includes a quick release.
Generally, this tripod runs $130 to $140 at most stores.
As reported: This is a compact and
lightweight tripod that offers the rock steady support necessary
for high-quality imaging with today's digital and conventional
cameras. It includes a built-in aluminum ball head with a single
"ratchet" locking lever, as well as quick-action leg locks for
fast set-up and breakdown. Ball head locks both
panning base and ball itself with one movement, unlike a lot of
ball heads which need two separate adjustments, sometimes losing
precious time when a quick adjustment is necessary.

ADJUSTABLE, ALLOWING YOU TO GET CLOSER TO THE GROUND FOR MORE

Michael,
I really enjoyed using the tripod that I purchased from
you last week on my trip to Catalina over the holiday weekend! It
wonderfully simplified switching between medium format and digital
cameras, with a quick release mounted on each camera. Also, the
lightweight construction was much appreciated for the hike up to
the Botanical Gardens and back! Do you know anyone who wants an
heavy, old tripod?
Thanks so much,
Frances Everett
