Re: My first purchase for my new SD1M will be....

Good choice. I did that for the DP Merrills (mainly) and for possible SDx DSLR in 2014.

I bought the Manfrotto 190CXPRO4 (5 kg limit though) with an Induro BHD0. I chose the PRO4 because of size (collapsed) and weight and that one can put the center rod horizontally for macro. The legs seemed also more sturdy than the Induro tripod. And I won't need something for more than 5 kg. The Induro ballhead I chose because I liked the handling of it and that it accepts Arca Swiss.

I had from before a cheap but heavy tripod, that just collected dust, so I decided to get a nice one that I'll bring.

Only thing missing now is a suitable quiver. Perhaps I'll sew one myself

Good luck finding a nice tripod
