Comments about Giottos Giottos MT-8170 3-Section Carbon Fiber Universal Tripod Legs, (Supports up to 26 lbs):
I have used the Giottos carbon fiber tripod equipped with an Acratech ball head, and have found it to be a perfectly stable platform for use as a copy-stand and for long (500mm) telephoto use. My only complaint is that it is relatively heavy when positioning the tripod and camera.

This is a stable base that I can travel with. I will never gve up my Gitzo (30 lbs.) for local heavy duty use but this tripod is a dream for travel by air. The heavy duty case is perfect for on board use. It is somewhat expensive but worth every penny for the photographer that requires and uses tripods for the best images.
