Travel Tripod

Travel Tripod

Postby Guntha » Mon Jun 14, 2010 5:03 pm

Hi all

I used to have a Hama Star 75 tripod for my travels but after a couple of uses the screw locks are ruined. I know it was cheap but it was a great size for carrying when travelling. I guess you get what you pay for. As a replacement I am looking at the Slik Sprint Mini II GM which is around £50. Has anyone had any experience with this tripod or do you have any alternatives in the same sort of price range.

Cheers

Graham

Hi Graham,
Hama do another affordable, compact yet sturdy tripod called the Compact Traveller I believe.

I tested it for the magazine a few months back and it was spot on.

Saying that Slik tripods are a good investment and you won't go wrong with them.
