Good topic... I would also need some experiences about it since my tripod is 5 years old and maybe I would suggest to buy a new one. I'm actually using a Rollei tripod. But I don't know the name... I think it's the C5 or something like that.

@ nataliaflejszar&Photo what would you pay for a new tripod? Would you prefer an aluminium or a magnesium tripod?

I think about to 100€ will be fine, and something that useful and light..

Ok.. that's not much for a tripod. Let's wait for the experiences of other members.

If you want a reliable stable tripod, always check Manfrotto. They pretty good, but a bit expensive.

I use my photo bag as a support for the macro, for flowers, mushroom...
