Sunpak 620
By Brian Jones
This is going to be the overall budget option for the tripod list. This is a far from fully featured tripod, but it would be a great choice to someone who is not sure if they will actually use a tripod. It is very lightweight, so bringing it on a photo excursion and not utilizing it would not be a tragedy. It has bubble levels built-in for the sake of convenience while out in the field. One of the biggest drawbacks is the very low weight capacity. It will max out with some of the smaller DSLRs with small lenses or any of the bridge cameras on the market. This tripod can be had for $18.99 to $23.99.
