Hi,
I'm looking to get a tripod for making some videos with a DSLR/mirrorless camera and i need it to be at least 185cm,
and i have a budget of $120. Any suggestion on what tripod would be good?
 
I think you're going to have to increase your budget a bit.

The most basic video pan head for a small, light camera will run you at least $80, without legs. That will not be a fluid head (although the maker might suggest that it is). And a set of slightly wobbly legs of that height will run you at least $100.

OTOH, you might be able to find something on eBay or Craig's List or the used department of your local camera store in your budget.

FWIW, tripods don't become obsolete. It's a place where you might want to spend more and buy something that will serve your projected future needs.

That's a great point. I'll offer a bit more for a tripod then.
