Hey Roksliders,
I'm looking at buying a Tripod for glassing with my 8x and 15x Vortex Vipers, I'll be carrying them into the backcountry for 3-4 day hunt stints(Colorado), so needs to be sturdy, limited vibration, lightweight, height is not essential as I will be glassing either sat down on a rock or on the ground. My budget is $250 or £200, yep I'm from the UK, so I'll be taxed , unless I can find the equivalent Tripod in the UK. It would be better if there was a ball-head fitted, as my budget wont allow to buy separate or upgrade. Which would be best Alloy or Carbon. what's everybody else using, Any help much appreciated.
Dave
