I was asking because if you are looking in the camera store for a tripod and you cannot fork over the cash for a Manfrotto, I'd suggest looking at the Velbon range. You'll need to spend around $120.

I use a CX540 for 12x60s (that's easy) and for a set of 20x80s (now that's not so easy, but it can be done).

However, if I went back again I'd buy a Velbon CX660. Few more dollars but a much more sturdy head. I helped a friend buy that one for a pair of 20x80 bins and she is very happy with it.

CX660 - I see it advertised at $119 here:- http://www.digitalcamerawarehouse.com.au/prod4945.htm
