I've not used the Slik and am not sure of the model, but I wasn't
overly impressed with the two at the local camera store. I already
have a set of Manfrotto 3444D legs that I bought when I had the
Hasselblads ... they work great with both the Sony R1 and the Pentax
DS ... but I'm also considering a set of Bogen/Manfrotto 190MF4s as
they're smaller, lighter, have a trickier column for doing macro, and
they're sturdy enough for what I need now. A little pricey but I like
the column design and leg locks.

Has anyone had any experience with this tripod? I picked one up on
ebay for $150 yesterday. I need something light for walks in the
woods. My Bogen 3036 is great, but it's killing me :-).
