The Giottos MTL3271B is a large tripod, standing about 150cm tall- and that's before extending the centre column. While it's not exactly a featherweight at about 2.4kg, it's pretty portable for a tripod of this size. Neat high-gloss finish up top, with matte aluminum legs and easy flip locks. Accepts any head with a standard 3/8" thread (head sold separately)
