Travel Tripod

[Jay_A]

I'm off to Vegas in a couple of weeks and want a small tripod that will handle my 5D mk III / 24-105 comfortably.

I've looked at the Gorillapods, but not convinced thats the best solution.

Any thoughts?

Gorilla pods work really well! I have the dslr one, since you are local if you PM the dates you could maybe borrow in exchange for some beers

Ok cheers. So you find it keeps the camera dead still?

Hama do a traveler compact and it works fine although I only have a 550 and a SIG 10-20 but it seems OK. Was only 20 from Tesco a couple years ago,, drops pretty low. I've never used it fully extended though.
Fits inside a record/courier type bag too. Think its about 40cm long when packed down.

Yea from what I can see Jay, I have used it with my 10 stop filter and its worked lovely.
