<p>Hi Paul. The tutor has said "they are a Velbon brand and seem to be pretty durable and a reasonable weight and price. The model we have is (I think) CX-540 and cost around £35 - although there are a number of very similar Velbon ones which vary slightly in height, cost and weight etc."</p>
<p>Hope that helps.</p>
<p>Best</p>

<p>Cheers Jean! I had a telescope as well Jean, as I was mad on astronomy as a nipper! I currently use a Velbon tripod, but Manfrotto are the "real deal"! My Velbon is quite heavy, so it`s good for weight training lol! Have had a look for the my spare tripod, but it may have been lost/discarded when I moved here?</p>

<p>Steve you are an all round good egg.</p>
<p>Paul I bought a Manfrotto (got a deal on it when I bought a telescope many moons ago). It is beautifully engineered, but it's pretty heavy and they are expensive. I did a couple of photography courses earlier this year and they had quite lightweight tripods for the students to use which I think were about £30/40 according to the lecturer. They're probably fine if you're not a professional photographer. If Steve doesn't sort you out I can ask…</p>

Given I'm pretty small weight is an issue for me, camera/lenses/tripod can get heavy if carried around all day! I have a very lightweight cheapo Dixons one I take on holiday which telescopes down to about 15 inches and up to about four feet, but it's a tad flimsy so wouldn't take any big telephoto lenses for birdwatching etc.</p>
