i really like the Slik tripods - obviously they arent as good as Manfrotto or gitzo heads, but bang for buck in the 100-120 price range is unparalleled.

Plus I think that higher range products from cheaper companies are better than lower range products from more prestigious companies, but just my opinion

Maybe it's cause I haven't used a super nice one, but I usually just get crappy ones on ebay for like $15 and they work fine. I'm a fan of Monopods too but thats personal preference. Prob not what you're looking for though..sorry if this is no help at all
