that's cool but earlier you said

Been there, done that.     Get a Velbon DV7000

but that''s not the one you have?
the Davis & Sanford ProVista 18 Aluminum Video Tripod with FM-18 Fluid Head with Quick Release, Supports 18 lbs., Extends 31" - 78".
seems pretty sweet
would the cheaper lower version be that much worse? - anyone?
thanx

Because you said that you were trying to keep it at $100.   

From all my research the Velbon gets sick reviews for it's pan and tilt fluid head.  Likely a better head than what is on mine. But again it's short.

This also gets great reviews.  Similar to mine but a lot shorter 52.4". Said to have a better pan though than the D&S.
