guys i am looking for a new tripod (my old one is unusable now since i lost the plate that mounts onto the camera  ) so is there anywhere locally that sells tripod? i dont need Manfrotto or anything that expensive  i like ball head but i know they are more exp compare to normal ones so it's not required (unless they are cheap) but any suggestions?

I'll sell you my tripod for cheap  I don't use it much anymore since I got the monopod. I did splurge a bit and bought a manfrotto monopod

I'm planning to ask my Uncle in HK to get it. my mom has a friend that'll be coming back at the end of March, so i'll probably get her to bring it back.
so if it doesn't work out, i can probably get yours carry on as well.
