What tripods are you guys using here?

Atm I am considering buying this one:

Cullmann Magnesit 522 tripod with 3D head

http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/633400-REG/Cullmann_CU_55221_Magnesit_522_Aluminum_Tripod.html

I think the 5kg /11lbs supported weight should be enough. And the price is also OK.

Any opinions?

/e or shall I get ball head?

/e2 need it for general usage: Urban shots with max of 150mm, macro shots, studio shots, nature shots

Price: $749.95 :(

This tripod is 1,5 times more in price than the average nett salary / month in my country.

Lol I could never imagine paying that much for something that would collect dust in my closet. Its so rare that I pull mine out.

This is what I got, only it was about $20 after Trevs discount. I miss BB :(
