My photography instructor has told us acouple of horror stories involving the use of the quick release tripold. Just wanted to get u folks opinion on them.Thanks for any input.

If you are new to photography like I was and have purchased a digital SLR camera(lens kit included) you shoot everything in automatic mode. You see all kinds of accessories you need on the internet that will give you the means to take wonderful photos. The best thing you can do for your money if you can is to enroll in a commuity college or any school that has a photography course.I did this and it has opened my eyes to the world of photography. Enjoy!!
