recently, i'm looking for an inexpensive tripod to practice the bluring and panning effects.
Sunpak is considered the best brand to me for now.
I want to know which of the following model is the best.
SUNPAK 8001 UT-B medium duty TRIPOD
SUNPAK 9002 DX medium duty TRIPOD
SUNPAK Platinum Plus 5800D Medium Duty Tripod
since sunpak's website does not have the description for all model, i have no idea which one is considered the best.

Thanks for your answer!

Buy the 8001 UT-B. It has more features, holds 6.6 pounds.
My only question is: "Is it tall enough for you?" It only opens to 60" so if you're over 60" tall you'll either be stooped over or extending the center column.
Extending the center column more than an inch or two is a NO-NO because it adds instability. Raise the center section all the way up and the slightest touch will cause camera shake. With a longer zoom mounted a gentle breeze will cause camera shake.
Good luck.

If your camera is expensive, you want a tripod that will not fall. I would suggest that you look at Slik, Gitzo, and Manfrotto (Bogen). I think you will find the lightest with the most strength will be the new polycarbon fibers which will equal steel, or better, in strength.

I don't know the tripod.
I use Benbo Trekker and Manfrotto. Benbo Trekker is very light and easy to use, has two sizes of screws, and can be made to suit any uneven terrain.
My best advice for you is to buy the heaviest tripod you can carry if its for outdoors. In the studio you need the heaviest you an afford.

Try a Bogen Manfrotto 3021.
