Tripod Buyer's Guide (page 2)
Level it!
A tripod does more than merely hold a camcorder steady, it holds it level. If you're in your house, setting on a level platform may not be a problem, but when you're outdoors on rough terrain, a smooth, level surface can be hard to find. Many models, feature a bubble level to determine when the camcorder mount is level.
If you're in the market for a tripod, it's best to test it before you buy it. By actually screwing your camcorder onto the tripod, you can see for yourself if it's what you need.
Take a peek at the accompanying tripod buyer's guide. You'll see that there's a wide range of models and prices. Then get the tripod that fits your needs and budget; your production rests on it.
