Another plea for a cheap and good tripod
#5
In my experience, there is either good or cheap. What is your intended application?

If you want something in your price range, consider getting an aluminum tripod with a built-in 3 way tilt pan head. There will be some vibration (versus bigger carbon fiber tripods), but it should do the trick. The cheaper carbon fiber tripods are very light--so only useful if you want to back-pack and don't care about vibration/stability too much. Of course, any tripod is more stable and hand-holding...which applies to the $20-$30 tripods.

Here are some tripods on a quick search through Amazon:
