I can highly recommend the Pro version of the Fancier/Weifeng tripod, which has the extra height to get eye level interviews http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-8M-WEIFENG-EI-717-PRO-HEAVY-TRIPOD-KIT-FREE-BAG-/290565292140?pt=UK_Tripods_Monopods&hash=item43a70a806c#ht_6289wt_952

Where are you? US or Europe?

I'd highly recommend looking into some E-Image too...

Its price is compellingly attractive! Have you got one or tested it? (Eg long lens, slow & fast pans/tilts, lock head & then gently attempt to twist, you know what I mean).

Yep, have got the 717 and use it mainly with the Nokton 25mm on my GH13 - yet to use it with a long lens. Occasional slow tilts and pans with ff are all smooth although I use a slider a bit more. Haven't tried the upmarket Schlatler etc but the Weifeng is awesome value for money, great to use and looks good on jobs.

Howdy, Stranger!
