If you don't want to spend money on the expensive peak design tripod, you can find many alternatives at half the cost like the "Ulanzi Zero Y Lightweight Travel Tripod"
Yes this is true, my only issue with that is the tolerances in the tripod head since cheaper tripods are generally meant for simple prosumer/SLRs whereas professional photographers who use heavier/longer lenses need the same amount of support I need to rest my wrists as I type.
