I got a new manfrotto carbon fiber tripod and manfrotto pan/tilt head for christmas. This thing is heavy - add the new Canon 5DM2 to the top of it and :scared1: !
Don't get me wrong - I love it and know it will fully support my camera with the 70-200L lens on it (which my other cheapie tripod did not) - but who am I gonna hire to carry this thing around for me?
Hmmmmm.... maybe that is what the hubster is for! :rolleyes1
It is also way to big to fit in my old tripod bag so now I need a new bag. Emily (DD) is happy however. Not only has she inherited my old XTi and 3 lenses, but also several filters, remote shutter release, and I just gave her my old Quantaray flash - and also the tripod and bag. Merry Christmas to Emily. ;)
