I've used a Manfrotto tripod for filming, although it was about 15 years ago...

My experience says it's good and solid.

But what's this:
"Cons: * Heavy"

Heavy = Stable, and thus something very positive!

Cheers

Not really... Carbon Fibre tripods are lighter, and can withstand heavier loads. If I need the weight, I can always add weights!

I still prefer granite to graphite...
