There are various kind of cheap and expensive tripods available on sale at auction websites and high street, but do not know what shall I look for price, quality or make. I have Nikon D50 DSLR camera.

Check that it can do everything you want it for.
* can it hold the weight of your D50 + the heavyest lens you'll ever use
* should it fold down small enough to fit in a back pack?
* should it reach to eye level at maximum height?
* should it be rugged enough to throw down a cliff?
* should it have a (simple) ball head, or will you get something fancy with triggers, quick release plates, etc. sepperately?
* etc.
You can get tripods for $20 and you can spend +1000. If you only plan on using it once in a blue moon, get something for around $60. Bogen/ Manfrotto and SLIK have good stuff.

one that will accept the camera... maybe one that has the pull out center of the tripod....
make sure the tripod is sturdy bring it to whereever... where are you going..??
make sure, the tripod that you buy, whatever we did thank you... when you move it it will cause the noiose in the camera. one that has a quick switch from landscape to portrait... any one that is middle of the road is what i'd recommend.... now that i woke up and see the keyboard imprinted on my forhead.....
