    This is my favorite tripod. Packs down small enough to fit into my backpack side pocket for the water bottle, has a cell phone holder for cell phone shooting too. The aluminum one (this one) is $200 cheaper than the carbon fiber one -- I've held both of them and the weight different was negligible enough for me to save $200 and go with aluminum.
