Hi, appreciate and can do with some help/ views here.
I have a F70 and my heaviest lens is a cheap Tokina 100-300mm that weighs 466 grams. The F70 weighs 600 grams. So the total is less than 1.1 KG
I am currently using the SLIK U8000 tripod.
In its website it states U8000 it can support up to about 2KG.
I have used this setup for like 6 to 7 years.
I am looking for a more portable and shorter (folded length) tripod, and came across the Sprint Pro which states it can support up to about 2.5 KG. But the description say until like only for digicams. The last time I set foot into the tripod shop for CP at Penin, someone ask about the Sprint Pro too, the salesman said that one only for digicams.
So my question is can the Sprint Pro support my camera and lens?
It's strange that the supported weight is 2.5 KG and yet the saleman say only for digicams. I just find it contradictory.
Would be grateful if someone can help me out b4 I bring my gears to try out at some shops.
