I'm currently running a 3.5lb slik 340 that doesn't pack or carry very well and looking to lose some weight. 1.25lbs at least would be nice. i plan to purchase a kramer granite peak for the incidental glassing but i'm looking for a 2lb day hunt tripod with twist leg extensions and a good head. i'm undecided on pan vs ball. i've really only used pan heads but if the weight savings and packability are greatly increased by going ball then i guess i could try to get used to it.
a couple i've been looking at:
i'm open to other ideas but want to stay below 2.25lbs with head and shorter than 16" folded if possible. i'd like to be able to fit it inside my kuiu icon 1600.
