Mission Critical PRST vs RRS Tripod

[Cold_Bore_88]

I am looking to buy a tripod and have researched the different options as nauseum. I have decided to go with the RRS Anvil or leveling base and the RRS VYCE. However, I am having a hard time justifying a tripod that costs 200% more than the PRST.

Has anyone had experience with both? Any feedback on why one is a better option than the other (price is obvious).

I haven't handled either the PRST or an RRS, but after lurking here for a while it seems to me most feel the Feisol options are the closest you can get to RRS quality without paying the RRS price. Check out the 3342 and 3372 options (and their 4-segment counterparts).

Thanks for the response. Will do.

Check out the Leofroto as well. There’s a thread about them here.
