New Tripod!

I recently got a Manfrotto 190XB 3 Section Aluminum Tripod with a Manfrotto 128RC Micro Fluid Head.  This tripod is amazing!  It is solid and well-built. My last tripod was a cheap amateur tripod that wobbled a lot.  One of the knobs recently broke so I decided to splurge for a good tripod. A good tripod is necessary for steady long exposure shots.  So far, I’m very satisfied with this tripod.  Manfrotto tripods are highly respected in the photography field and now I see why.  This tripod is not wobbly at all.  All the joints are rigid when locked and liquid smooth when not.

The head is also great! It has a nice handle and the resistance is nicely adjustable.  Just a small twist to the tightening knob is all it takes to drastically alter the resistance.  According to how it handles and the reviews I read, this head also makes it great for video. I highly recommend one or both of these products.
