im pretty sure luke has the camlink one but cant remember.

im after some opinions on the following, as im in need of a new more stable tripod as my cheap argos one doesnt like my camera and still makes all the pictures blured

ideally dont want to spend anymore than £75ish at most £100 so pretty much most manfrottos (sp) are out of the question.

torn between a redsnapper one for £75 (less 10% discount)
redsnapper tripod

or this camlink one £60
Camlink tripod

anyone recommend either of these or suggest another one?

tbh id prefer to spend less than the 2 above as i rarely use the tripod but i do need to get a better one for the times that i do use it

Mate, I used a Jessops (click) Own brand jobbie for ages, and nothing went wrong with it at all, very sturdy, and a decent all rounder. Rob off here borrowed it and has it in Cardiff somewhere, or maybe in colwyn bay? Rob?

Now use a manfrotto tripod & head. Think the tripod is a 190x? I know the heads something 486 Proper decent, picked it up off talkphotography for £80, opposed to £110 for the tripod and £50 for the head. Bargain, only a few little scratches on it, but couldn't care less!
