The more expensive ones don't look like they would be good for video.

Refresh the page, I had posted the link for Photo tripod systems.  I changed the link to post Video tripod systems.

Thank you, do know which brands are better, I'm new to tripods.

I would check the reviews on the site. I'm not familiar with the current brands there.  Sometimes it is better to go to a store that carries the product and see how they feel.

The company I work for is starting to branch out in creative video production and we use Magnus fluid heads and they are pretty close to your price range and are very good.

System: i7 4790K, Hyper 212 EVO, 16 GB Crucial Ballistix, GTX 1070 Super clocked, MSI Z97S SLI Krait Edition, Corsair RM 750, Corsair 750D (with 2 additional 140mm NZXT fans up top for exhaust.)
