Looking for lightweight suggestions for “leave the heavy tripod at home” days when I have the small 60mm Opticron scope. Max height 150cm, packed <50cm (so it fits in the backpack) and 1.5kg or thereabouts. Seems most compact tripods come with ballheads which I have no experience with using for a spotting scope.
There seem to be a few options from Benro, Siriu, the manfrotto Befree live, possibly a 3-legged-thing.I’d like reasonable stability, concerned that many light tripods are rather spindly and maybe little improvement on the monopod that I currently use for light travels.
