Generally you want something that's a good trade-off between stability (which means heavy) and something that's portable (which means light). Do you have a budget in mind so we can suggest something?

Well, I don't want to cross the 100 euro... But I guess that's not such a big problem... (I saw that the things over 100 are mostly for studio photographers, so very professional ).

In general, I would say that 100€ buys you a good tripod and you need another 100€ for the head.

Nothing personal. I just say if I disagree and enjoy a nice debate.

Seriously? What's that for? Why isn't all in one?

I gotta mention, though, that my camera is the Olympus mju 820... So neither is my camera very professional...

That's what I was wondering when they made cameras that didn't have a lens completely attached! Why should I have a camera if I need to buy a lens too?! That's what I was wondering when they told me I'll need a different lens for macro, portrait, landscape, and wild life photography! Why don't they just make a lens that covers the whole 18-200 mm spectrum? Oh, wait, they do. And it sucks. :3

In all seriousness, though, certain people want certain tripods and certain heads. If you want them together, go buy a cheap one for $50, and you'll get the head and tripod together. That's what I did! And I do regret it.

I totally understand, but you gotta consider... I'm a 15-year old amateur photographer. It's not like I really have to get one THAT expensive.

Why do you regret it? That's what I wanna know, why I should buy something or definitely not...

Because it makes shooting difficult. I don't like having to adjust four plastic nobs to get my tripod to move. The head just sucks. It gets jammed up all the time. Despite the thing being rather heavy, it's pretty unstable. The legs keep falling out of place. I'm afraid my camera will soon become a casualty.

Go buy a Manfrotto. That's all I have to say.

You may be young, but a good tripod and head can last you a life time.

To be honest, I'd much rather spend $300 on a tripod and head and have it last a decade, than have to buy a succession of $50 tripods every year.

You shouldn't be aiming to buy a tripod for what you have now, you should be aiming your choice at what you may have in the future.
Do you ever see yourself wanting to go further in photography? If so, you'll likely get more professional cameras as you progress, and since higher end cameras tend to be heavier, you'll need a tripod to support their weight.

Getting a cheap tripod now that can only support the weight of your current camera would be a false economy in this case, because you'd have to get a new tripod if you got a new camera.
