may be the perfect tripod

MeFoto makes a great product based on other reviews and my own experience, and the Road Trip is the perfect middle ground between heavier/more stability and lightweight/less stable. It holds my fairly heavy DSLR and lens combos with no problems, and I haven't worried about everything falling over.

It's a great, compact design and has most of the bells and whistles you might need without breaking the bank. It feels well constructed, the ball head and twist leg locks work well, and you can extend and retract everything pretty quickly. In addition, this gives you the option to separate one leg to use as a monopod. If you aren't totally happy with the release plate (which you can tighten and loosen with a coin), you could always swap out for a different head with a quick release plate more to your liking.

You can pay a lot more for the carbon fiber version to save a little weight - it's your decision whether that's a good enough return on your investment.

The only downside I've found so far is there are only two "locked" leg positions: what I'd call standard and very wide. You can't set the legs at any other increments. You can, however, mount your camera underneath the tripod if macro shots are your thing.

I will submit additional notes about weight on the back while hiking and durability after more extensive travel testing.

I would recommend this to a friend!
