Last month I went over the various lenses one needs for doing a variety of photoshoots. This month, just as importantly, is the right selection of a good tripod.
Now I have some expertise in this because I have also bought those cheaper versions.
Those $19.95 tripods we see on amazon are great for their intended purpose of being a general light use tripod, but I found out they are very poor when working on a photoshoot that requires accurate framing and camera sbaility.
