Well ... since my purchase of a Nikon D40 I am on the hunt for a beginners tripod. Ideally, want something lightweight, that folds down and has a bag would be good. I am also 56 so something designed for hobbits rather than Gandalf. I would also like to be able to put it up - put it away with ease.
No budget in mind, but recommendations would be good.
(EDIT: Someone recommended me a Manfrotto 190XProB with 322RC2 head, although pricing up head and tripod is over £170 ... I think not! a budget all rounder would be better for now)
Many Thanks :)

I bought a Star 35 a while back, only cost under 20 quid and came with a bag and folds faster than a poker player. Not too bad for a beginners unit.

Just get the 18-200VR and youll never need a tripod :mrgreen:
