Tripod

[Geronimo]

I am looking for a somewhat light weight tripod.
60" to 72" in height range. mainly for nature, outdoors area. Various hiking and back counrty terrian.

I was looking at this (http://www.adorama.com/catalog.tpl?op=details&sid=105878228913523086&sku=BG3221GN) but was wondering if anyone had any suggestions.

... looks good!

I use Manfrotto's black "190b" pro-model which travels with me everywhere i go and has never let me down

One suggestion - use a ball head

Enjoy your shopping!

Spec list the weight as 6.2 lb, I thought hiker usually tried to cut down backpack weight.

Have you looked in to using a monopod, are if it is in your budget carbon fiber
