I'm not really a tripod aficionado (I only got my first one last year...) but the thread title made me think... "light, but tall, tripod" sounds to these ears (eyes?) like a possible disaster for stability. I know my tripod has problems when the top portion is extended - with a heavy camera and lens there is sometimes a bit of flex. Not to mention the very elevated center of gravity means that extra care needs to be taken.
Of course it may be just that I'm too inexperienced with tripods...
