Well that's good. So I just have to get the proper head to go with it the legs could hold all the weight I'd be looking at as well. Thanks neuro

Your not going to want a ball head for video...
Hmmm... I believe that is called throwing a spanner in the works []

Words get in the way of what I meant to say.
I have a proper tripod for video stuff if I plan on doing serious video work, but most of the nature stuff simply requires a good smooth pan, and from my initial tests the Induro heads are pretty good on the independent pan feature. Perhaps Denise could back me up on this?
Besides shakey cam is the way to go [] Redrock Micro Captain Stubling with a Zacuto finder and you're all set!
Thanks for everyone's help. I ended up purchasing an Induro BHD1 (rated at 27lbs) and the Manfrotto 190PROXB legs.
I'll post some night stuff in a bit.
