I would go to a local camera store and try some out. They should carry some around $100 that you can test out. Then you would get an idea of what you want. I picked up a Dolica 100 a few years ago at Costco for $89 it is sturdy, carbon fiber, and easy to adjust. It does not go as high as I want without extending the center mast all the way. This is ok unless it is windy then the camera moves.
