You say don't use a 300mm on a compact tripod.
Can you define what you mean by 'compact'.

Reason is, I was aware of the implications of using heavy lenses on tripods as a whole, and using collars to support it.

At the moment, I'm using a cheapy Asda tripod (Hama Star 42 I think), with my 350D attached, and have a couple of times had my Sigma 70-300 attached.
I've done this without thought. Am I in danger of killing something?

Regards
