When you purchase a tripod make sure there are levels that you can adjust the tripod. My Sirui SH25 tripod has two levels that are lite with
batteries. They are on the Video/ Photo ball head. One level for forward reverse side by side and the other level is for height. The reason I choice this tripod was after looking for a tripod for Sony a99ii and the RX10M4 camera I needed a tripod the was 6' tall. All the ones I found were under 5 1/2 feet tall. I am 5' 9 inches tall and I do not want to lean down and look at the camera when I am either taking a photo or shooting a movie. Hope this helps you find a tripod.
As long as you have received a lot of different replies go to your local camera store and rent a few tripods from the different manufacturers and find the one that suits you the best and go from there.

I had mine for over 4 years, has given me no problems.
Even all DSLR camera have a USB-C connection. You use a Video monitor HDMI cable input and output. All cameras have a USB-C plug in. Cellphone are now using Mini USB -C plugins for charging you cellphones. Same plug in is on Tables along with laptops.
Well I have a camera bag backpack. Looks just like a backpack but it only holds camera and camera accessories. They come in varies sizes along with varies prices. I found my backpack @ B&H photo.
After a few tries I found that the Sony Microphone does not want to allow me to attach it to the V rig. I do not want to purchase another microphone. What I need to purchase are mounts that will lock on to the tripod legs and will let me use the V rig or just place the monitor on the tripod leg. Does anyone know where I can purchase those mounts and what they are called?
Thank you for your help.
Have a problem I just cannot seem to correct. I want to use a Sony ECM XYST1M Shotgun microphone on a Vello V rig along with mounting a Feelworld Monitor on a leg of the V rig. The Sony shotgun microphone will be mounted on the center of the V rig. The camera along with the other equipment is going to be mounted on a tripod which I am going to use to video a wedding for a friend of mine.
Have any of the members used a V rig to hold the Monitor on one leg and the microphone on the other two legs? Sony tells me that the microphone has to be mounted on the hot shoe to work and when I have used the microphone cable and plugged it into the camera, I am receiving sound, but I do not know if it is coming from the on-camera microphones or from the Sony microphone which I have plugged into the camera.
How do I use this microphone mounted on the V rig to receive all the sound and not get the sound from the cameras microphone? I know that there are Rode microphones that Ican mount on the V rig and they will work but I do not want to invest in another microphone unless I really have to. This is a new microphone and this is going to be the first time I am going to use it. I would really like your inputs and if you use a microphone on a V rig and a monitor while filming videos.

Sounds like me. Have a Gibson Les Paul, Gibson L205 semi hollow body, Gretch White Falcon 12 string and a Gibson SG custom 3 pickups. Have a large Marshall amp that I purchased in 68'.
My 68' FHL Harley semi chopped would have looked nice there. It mounted an extra 5 metal gallon beer keg on the rear of the seat as an empty gas tank.

When I store my RX10M4 I take the battery out of camera. The battery does drain when you store it in the camera.
I do have a a99ii and a RX10M4. I really enjoy the RX10M4. Great for action shots. They have a built in 4x setting so at full extension the 600mm becomes 2400mm lens. If you do purchase the RX10M4 there is a company that sells the manual in two spiral bound books. I have these books and they are great.
