Tripod Legs w/Ball Level?

It's a Bogen Video; just look at the Bogen website for Video Tripods with a 75mm or 100mm bowl. For $300 you will probably end up with a 75mm. You might also check out Libec—they have a low-end tripod, too. Of course you will also need a fluid head and leveler. By the way, how much does you camera weigh? That will narrow down your choices.

Best,

Whatever you do... do not EVER EVER get sticks with twist-locks... just get the flip locks... or regret it forever if you don't. I will never suggest Gitzo tripods again... I've had one and in the first year it was great... but now the the pod is aging.... the twist-locks are the lowest form of production level torture. At this point I detest my Gitzo sticks...
 
i second the motion to avoid anything with twist-locks.. i've had a manfrotto neotech for 4 years now. it's great for rapid & spontaneous still photography but should you accidentally lean on it.. OUCH! and that is only with a 2lb dslr.
When i buy my next tripod for when i join the ex-1 club, it will be something utterly solid and slow to setup with decades tested & proven flip locks.
