Dear Mr Gravett, thank you very much. This video was really helpful. Now I know what to pay attention for when choosing a tripod, because it was so well explained!
I am a total amateur concerning tripods. Just this summer started some astrophotography shots. My tripod is a 20 year old Sunpak my daughter bought me for Christmas many years ago. It is way too short for me . I am just over 6' 3". I have read several posts stating the extension will be unstable allowing the photos to be out of focus. I am having a difficult time finding a tripod that is within my budget and also about 6' tall at the base or bottom of the ballhead. Can you give me any advice? Thanks

Hi Jerry
1. What’s your budget?
2. Typically I’d spend the same on a tripod as I would on a lens.
I’ll do more research and get back to you.
