Hi all, my trusty (but honestly always pretty terrible) Amazon basics tripod finally died, does anyone have a tripod they’d recommend or brands they’d avoid?

Typical usage for me would be travelling/hiking and landscape photography so ideally small and light without breaking the bank (which I know is pretty tough). Budget is variable but call it £100-£200 for now.

    More important than the tripod itself is probably the tripod head - you’ll want it stable, easy to adjust, and easy to obtain additional quick mount plates. If budget ends up being too tight buying a good head and a cheap tripod, and later replacing just the tripod might be a sensible option as well.
