Tripods for Sale
1. Manfrotto 390
Alumininium (I think), weight ~1.5kg, closed height 58cm, extended height 160cm, 4 section screw tighten legs, integral 3 way pan-tilt head. I don't have the load bearing, but it will take a medium-format SLR and probably even a large format. I've used this as a "studio" tripod since it fairly heavy and bulky. It doesn't have a cover but I have the original box.
2. Manfrotto digi-718SHB
Aluminium, weight ~1.0kg, closed height 40cm, extended height 125cm. 4 section lever-tighten legs, integral 3 way pan-tilt head. The load bearing is less than the 390, but will comfortably take my Bronica 645. Comes with carry case.
This is more worn; one scratch, and most of the non-essential rubber finishes (feet etc) have been lost. Great for shooting outdoors because of the light weight and small size but a lowish extended height
Both £30
Please see Andrea for details and she will put in touch with the seller.

Majority Report: America, Amateur Photography and the Internet Curated by Roger Hargreaves | 2 September - 2 October 2009
FREE exhibition at the Margaret Harvey Gallery, St Albans. Majority Report presents a selected snapshot of the state of amateur photography in the digital age through a photographic narrative of America at a pivotal moment. It questions our assumptions about the nature of amateur photography at a time when the private is becoming public and when journalism has become the domain of the citizen. The exhibition draws together photographs taken in America and posted on the image hosting website Flickr. Since its inception in 2004 the site has developed into a complex depository of over three billion images that mark a diverse range of agendas and photographic strategies.
