Where to buy a new tripod?

[Ryan Lalonde]

I've been looking at new and used tripods for almost 2 years now.... Needless to say it's hard to find a newer 1030 or 18/20p for $2000 :)

If I was to purchase a new 1030D + 30L sticks, where would I go?

BnH seems to be the least expensive at 7500 for the package. (Which is insane as I've seen 2575's go for not much more than that on ebay)

I've heard Abel Cine will work with you on the price... but I don't have any contacts there as I normally like to purchase within Canada.

Who would you guy's recommend?

Give BJ Purcell at Custom Supply a call. Great guy, great pricing. I've bought several tripods among other pieces of gear from him.

Hey Ryan,
I got to try the O'Connor at NAB. It was immediately apparent what all the fuss is about. A true lifetime investment.

yea I agree it's awesome. I just can't bring my self to spend 8 grand on a tripod setup. I suppose I spend a lot more on things that go obsolete within a couple years....
