That is a bloody expensive tripod! I rarely use a tripod. If I think I’ll need one on a bike trip I take a Manfrotto pocket support; if I think i’ll need something bigger I’ll use a Leica table tripod and ball & socket head, or a bean bag. Mostly that’s adequate - I can always find something to put them on for height. The Leica ball head is superb.
