Recommendations for new tripod under £100?

As title really. I have a Sony DSLR and wish to get a tripod to go along with it. Budget up to £100. Preferably fairly portable when collapsed. Can anyone recommend something suitable? Thanks.

Funnily enough, in the latest DP magazine they have a review of 'budget' tripods. The top came out as Manfrotto 190D + 056 head at £90. The next was the Manfrotto 785B Modo Maxi at £50 jointly with the National Geo Tundra NGTT2 at £50 too. The Velbon Sherpa 750n came out las tbut was still 3 out of 4 stars.

Hope this helps.
