Another tripod thread

Hv30, shooting with nothing special, just a telephoto or fisheye lens. Probably getting some shots in with a Rebel XS as well. Willing to shlep a heavier hunk of metal around for better shots. I know nothing about tripods but these look pretty good

I was looking at these two:

It's so funny (yet trrible) how these random companies are making "professional" looking tripods and selling them for like 150 bucks...... then when the person gets the tripod they are lt down and end up spending more money on a real tripod. I'm talking about the ones in the OP.

Wow I suck at typing. *they end up hating it and buying a more expensive tripod in the longrun anyways*
