I'm looking to get a Tripod for about $100-150,

I will be using it with my D5500 to make videos and take pictures.

Check out the Monoprice tripods. I have 2 now and love both of them. Logan did a video about them if you want to see more on them.

Pan/tilt or ballhead?

Height?

Portable? (travel weight/size)

Does it need to be uber-stable for things like time-lapse?

I love Vanguard products.

I will be using it for reviews and I stand 5' 11 so I think the tripod should be somewhere near my height. I font want a ball head because it will be used for video. It does not need to be extreme stable but stabe enough that it won't be noticeable in a 10 minute video.

Are there any specific tripods you can suggest?

Ok, so you're doing video work?

You may want something with a drag-head and look more for a video tripod specifically since they can usually handle a lot of weight without a problem.

(just an example... though it does seem to have good reviews)
