I seem to have narrowed it down to the Quantaray Ultra-Pro (only $99) at
Ritz. I want something light, durable, but most importantly can extend to
over 6 feet high. This seems to do the trick.
Any suggestions?

Without knowing the weight of your camera and the heaviest lens you
intend to use on that tripod, its hard to make a recommendation. Try
putting your camera with your lens on that tripod in a store and make
sure the tripod holds the camera steady.
