slik 400dx is good for the price, to be honest, not too heavy.
it is after all, only singapore. i have carried a 2.5kg tripod around europe by hand (to the point that the 3 way head knob became er, slightly bent because i kept swinging it around when bored).. and it wasn't too bad, really.
so worth considering, unless you really think it is too heavy.
what is your heaviest gear combination that you will use on a tripod? that is important to know.

TS..... Benro is a good brand to go for using one myself. - http://www.benro.com/main/
Top up a little more and get a second hand manfrotto 190xprob+486rc2 ball head?
Benro is good. But no matter how hard I try, I cannot make myself buy one, because I know how cheap it is in China.
Well.... not everyone can take a trip to China just to buy a Benro could they ?? :bsmilie::sweat:
