Do you need an expensive tripod?

Agreed, "even with the best IS. Some of us absolutely need a tripod."
I have two tripods. I have absolutely no idea what brand either one is, since I've used neither one since I got my system with InBody Image Stabilization.
So the answer to the subject is "No, I do not need an expensive tripod {to store in the closet}"

I have used a tripod and accessories when I did flower shots. And I have used a tripod when shooting rocky formations with mirror lockup set. I hung a weight from my tripod for maximum stability of it. I own a decent Manfrotto tripod that I keep ready for the conditions requiring it. Otherwise, I shoot handheld with good results due to Image Stabilization controlling camera shake.
Note that unless one uses mirror lockup, the mechanical operation of a DSLR will induce a tiny amount of blur in the image from this operation. Adobe has addressed this problem by its recent filter, called "Camera Shake Reduction." This filter comes standard with Photoshop CC. It senses the offset found in pixels producing blur and brings the image back to the native optical sharpness of the lens. Often, the image needs no more sharpening.
