I am finding myself heading to a few venues that no one has ever taped at before. When this happens I always worry about what stand to bring. Do I bring a big tripod or a clamp with a 099B pole, the pole of course is much more convenient for everyone not just the person taping.
What I am wondering, when this is the case what do you all bring? I've been eye balling a manfrotto 003 base for the extension pole so I'm always prepared but I highly doubt the ability of that to hold a 8ft pole. Would you bring a tripod and a pole with a clamp, bring only one, or something else?
I historical have brought a tripod but in the area where I am, stands are like foot magnets! Clamping to a rail when available is always the way when possible.
Thanks
