Choosing a tripod for Olympus E-M5

Rest .....
I prefer to view the LCD rather than bend my back to look through the EVF

edit ... here I am using the mini-tripod to hold my first MFT a G3 while I view what it is taking on the reversed fully articulated LCD with a very small focus point selected and moving my head to position my eye over it. I probably used my cable release.

Get the biggest and heaviest you can afford and still carry. The only reason for a tripod is stability and flimsy won't get it!!
