I have a good back-country tripod and head, that I really like (Outdoorsmans Medium and Micro Head). I am thinking of getting a separate tripod and head for photography that is more for that purpose (not really a video guy, but would likely be used for that on the rare occasion I do use a tripod for video). I use a DSLR camera (that will likely upgrade soon also). I would likely use this tripod/head from the truck with my spotter. This tripod/head will likely be used for digiscoping some too.
Obviously I do not want to pay the weight fairy to much... but my main goal with this setup is NOT weight related. I do not have to have carbon, unless it has other benefits beyond lightweight.
I am 6'2" and do not really want to use a center extension post, if possible. If I did use one it would have to be rock solid.
Any suggestions on what some of you use, that would meet these criteria?
