I agree with the others about lens. If you bring the 55. You won’t need a flash. Because you’ll be outside the range of the flash. You are going to want a lens less than 24mm.

I decided to purchase the aluminum version of the Peak Design Travel Tripod. Would of liked the carbon fiber version. But couldn’t justify the extra $300.

Thank You everyone for all the advice and suggestions.

Thanks a lot. I thought about it and realized that I could just loosen the ring. The only issue I possibly see is for panoramas. But I Haven’t done any yet.

That is what I would like to get. But it’s just a little out of my reach. I would have to go for the aluminum version..Am also looking at the Manfroto 190 Go carbon fiber version.. You can never get everything you want in a single package. There are always trade offs.

One other quick question. The head doesn’t pan? So you need to turn the whole tripod to frame your shot properly?

Thank you very much Tas. Isn’t the head replaceable? If you don’t mind me asking. What gear head are you using? That would probably be my next purchase.

I don’t use it much. But I do use it for long exposures. I also use it sometimes when I want to bracket shots because of difficult lighting conditions.

I have just left the work force due to a disability. And now that I have a lot of time on my hands. I want to see if I can take my photography skills up a notch. The disability is also the main reason for the lighter tripod. Beside the fact that even if I was 100%. I would not want to haul the Manfroto around all day.

I currently own a Manfroto MT190XPRO4. It is a great tripod for using in a single location. I’m looking at purchasing the Peak Design Alumiinum Travell Tripod for Landscape photography. It seems like it would be much easier to haul around than the Manfroto. My issue is there is nobody near me that sell them. So I have no way to check it out. I’m hoping that someone on the forums owns one and can tell me what they think of it. Ex: Is it sturdy and stable? Is it easy to carry? …..

Any feedback or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

With the parts you have listed. I don’t see how you can get below $2000. You haven’t even included a mother board. The video cards with the exception of the 1660 are all around $900 plus. The graphic cards are also scarce. So don’t expect to find any deals.

PS
I’ve been looking at upgrading also. The systems I’ve been looking at are all around the $2000 mark without graphic cards.

They live in the woods behind my house. I saw one trying to sneak up on some turkeys hanging near our feeder one day. It got a little concerned when the turkeys started coming towards him instead of running away. I think it realized that 5 to 1 weren’t very good odds. :)
