Debbie,
Have a look at the Benbo range http://www.patersonphotographic.com/benbo-tripods.htm
Light, rigid and very versatile. Not the cheapest, but you can do
a lot worse for your money. You might find their Trekker Mk 3 would
suit your purposes. The Benbo distributor in AU is Vanbar http://www.vanbar.com.au/
I have a Benbo 2 and used to have a Trekker which I sold to buy a
Manfrotto 190xprob. Bad mistake.
Cheers,
Carl Clifford

Could anyone offer advice about buying a tripod for a DSLR + 300mm
lens? Obviously, the more you spend, the better the quality. I'm
willing to spend about $300. Would that get me something not too heavy
but still solid in windy weather? There are $80 tripods that seem
pretty good. What's the difference?
