Velbon Sherpa 250n

The Velbon Sherpa 250n is a pretty nice tripod with a three-way head and quick release system. Folds to about 62cm (25.5") and extends to 135cm (53") without the elevator centre column (165cm or 65" with the column up). A well made tripod that will almost certainly last longer than the social acceptability of referring to an inanimate object of commerce as a "Sherpa."
