Please recommend a D90 tripod.

To take a clear picture, the camera must be stable, and a tripod is generally the best. When using a slow shutter or a long exposure, you must use a tripod, especially when shooting at close range, at a low angle, taking a selfie or using a telescope. Some demanding photographers often use the chest frame to stabilize the camera even if they use high-speed shutters, which is really necessary for clear and sharp images.

There are many kinds of tripods, including the simplest monopod, folding type, flat type, tripod G-frame and bulky tripod for studio. However, their structures are inseparable from each other, including the tripod head, the quick assembly board, the bracket and the toes. The tripod head is at the top of the tripod and is responsible for camera stabilization and angle adjustment. Toes are responsible for fixing the tripod.

Basic accessories of tripod:

Pan/tilt: It is a device to adjust the shooting angle after fixing the camera. Spherical pan-tilt and 3D pan-tilt are more common.

Quick-assembly board: You can remove it from the tripod head and lock it in the fixing screw hole at the bottom of the camera, and then lock it in the track where the tripod head quick-assembly board is inserted (you can't rotate the camera 360 degrees by hand, otherwise it will be useless if you accidentally drop the camera).

Tripod base: (also known as three sockets) fixes and adjusts the support and unfolding angle of the foot tube. Professional tripods can be adjusted in three stages, while low-end tripods generally have only a fixed standing angle.

Foot tube angle adjustment button: There are two buttons: 1. When the fixing plate inclines upwards, the telescopic angle of the foot tube can be adjusted, and the fixed foot tube can automatically rebound after adjustment. 2. After the fixing plate is completely pulled out, select the expansion angle of the foot tube and press it back to fix it.

Foot tube telescopic locking device: divided into knob type and plate buckle type, China knob type is more popular in the market. In Europe and America, plate buckles are widely used.

Central shaft and fixing screws: when the working height is not enough, the height can be supplemented. After the central shaft is raised, it must be fixed with the central shaft screw.

Foot tube foam: this device can prevent freezing at MINUS several degrees. It can also prevent slippery when it is carried normally.

Foot pad (foot nail): It is the part of the tripod that directly touches the ground. Foot pads are generally made of rubber and silica gel, but it is best to choose silica gel to prevent slipping. Many people don't know how to distinguish between silicone and rubber. Silica gel is softer, more elastic when extruded, and rubber is worse, which will fade.

When buying a photographic tripod, please pay attention to the following points:

(1) Determine the size and type of tripod according to the size and weight of the equipment used, the height of the user, the type of the subject and the purpose of photography.

(2) Consider portability, operability, firmness and stability, smooth operation and reasonable price.

(3) Pay special attention to whether the pan-tilt can easily lock the camera, how far it rotates up and down, and whether the operation damping is smooth.

(4) Check whether the tripod is stable. Open the tripod completely, press and shake it from the tripod head. If it doesn't shake or the bracket returns, it will be buried. Also pay attention to whether it can retract freely? What is the design of the locking bracket? How about the lifting mode? How about the height of extension and the length of retraction?

(5) Consider the toe structure: At present, many manufacturers have introduced dual-purpose metal toes and silica gel foot pads, and metal feet nails can be inserted into the sand to prevent them from sliding on soft surfaces. Silicone foot pads can prevent sliding on smooth surfaces.

In view of your current equipment situation, I recommend you to buy the model around 200 yuan, and use it first. If conditions permit, then I suggest you consider a relatively professional product. For example, Bainuo has a carbon fiber bracket, the size is about 1600, which can be considered. The model number is C-069M8. It is suggested that the landlord consider aluminum-magnesium alloy, and the bracket is less than 1000, such as Bainola buckle. Moreover, the products of Manfutu are all famous brands. You can refer to the purchase. I am currently using a one-legged Manfutu, which is easy to carry and not bad.
