Budget Camera Tripod

[milkyjoe]

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a tripod for use with a Compact System Camera, my budget is about £50?  I've heard Manfrotto are pretty good, the Compact Series seem OK, but has mixed reviews.  I want to take stills and movies so it has to be sturdy.

Thanks!

Richard.

I have had a Slik Black Diamond for many years and been more then happy with it, seems they are still in exostance and come is several models and costs. I used to have a small goto fixed to it via an adaptor plate and that worked fine for a number of years.
