Thank you for the link. I knew the site but haven't visited it well.
What I also looking for is the tripod for taking macro photos. It can almost go flat on the ground (it's not the minitripod that's not very stable).

I have a tripod that the central shaft could go the upside down so the camera would touch the ground,but i have never used it in that way yet

Yes, it's perfect for everything :)
Only thing is SLR owners need to have their eyes against the viewfinder to take photos while digicams like Roosje's Coolpix8800 or my two Coolpix5000 and Canon Pro90 have their LCD screen that can rotate. It helps a lot when taking a photo of insects in the ground!
