I ordered the Sigma earlier this morning. It is an incredible and when paired with the Canon c100 Mark II
Is it for full frame cameras?
No it is for crop
Both my buddy and I splashed out on the Manfrotto tripod. Seems like a good travel tripod with proper maintenance (re-secure feet with gorilla glue, deal with the included ball head, etc.)
I have the Aluminum version. Fantastic tripod. I wish I could get the Carbon Fiber version but there's no time.
Nice to have a testimonial that is a good investment. I picked this up as purely a travel/hiking option as my main tripod (Promaster SP425CK) has some serious gravity in it. I can't bring myself to get something absurdly cheap for travel, so this seemed like as good of time as any to take advantage of 50+% off retail as any.
This tripod is still for sale at the discounted price as of posting this comment (B&H must have had some stock they are clearing out).
