Hi all,
Wading into the tripod conversation: I’ve got a Sinar Norma, and currently use an old aluminum Gitzo, which is plenty sturdy but both heavy and miserable to use in the cold. I’m looking at the Gitzo offerings, and my first question is whether or not a series 3 can support the Norma, or if I should bite the bullet and go for the larger series 5? I know the FLM tripods are very popular on here, but I’ve never seen one in person—how does the build quality compare? I suppose the CP38-L4 would be the one I’d want.
I’m hoping to be able to hike farther with my camera—I’m not looking for a wooden tripod as I’m hoping to lighten my load, not increase it. (And to that end, will probably update my camera in the next couple of years, too.) Thanks!
