GUS any tripod will do as the fitting is universal for all cameras. have a look at the velbon range.i have 2, a lightweight for travelling and a heavyweight for telescope use. but i also use this for camera work.but remember the heavier the tripod and the less you extend the legs the steadier it will be.

I've used all sorts from big wooden Gandolfi's that you could sit on without hurting them to metal monsters that kept my whole plate camera still in gales. Now I have just one and it is ideal for me now the camera is digital and the darkroom is a PC. It's a Manfrotto 190D. Quick to set up, not too heavy to lug and perfect for my Olympus E-1.
