While I do really like my Induro CT213 I am finding it really heavy when doing long, steep hikes. I’ve been shopping for a lighter alternative and finally made up my mind on one.
I’ve just ordered the C1691T Benro Travel Angel tripod. I am most impressed with the BO Dual Action ball-head. For being small it can carry a ton of weight. It held a Nikkor 80-200mm lens mounted to a D300s without sagging at all! That’s what sold me.
