Suggestion on Tripod for HVX + M2 + MicroX

[givemefood]

Hi

I'm interested in buying a sturdy and fluid Tripod system but need suggestions on what might be a best fit given the weight of my Camera & accessories.

Most of you might have the same configuration/combination:

HVX200 + M2 + MicroX + Nikon Lens + dual Rails + Other M2 setup accessories...

So what brand/series would be best to accommodate this kind of weight?

Please advise.

Many thanks

It depends how much you can spend,
id always suggest to place more dollars down in the beginning if you can..this will give you a much better quality for long term...!

I am personally renting tripods (which has the downside that you never know how well they are working after all..), but i guess id get a Sachtler Tripod in any case when i buy (and rent)....fluid head (might be 18p or 20p) is the best, should be fine for your setup...for the sticks id suggest something lightweight if you carry it around a lot...!

Hope that helps..

p.s. i am not sure how long it takes to buy one, remember that it is hard sometimes to just walk into a store and get one...could be several weeks of order-time...
