I am a complete newbie and just getting to grips with my new toy. D300 and Sigma 18-200mm. I have a real interest in landscape and low light/evening shots so I think that a tripod will be essential.
I am going to Australis for a month and really want to ensure I get the best chance to take some wonderful shots and hopefulyy most will be keepers and not blurry.
I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a light but stable tripod. I am 6′ tall if that makes any difference. Budget set around 250 euro or so but as you guessed it, saving some money out of that would be nice.
