I am looking for a tripod and I wouldn't want to spend more than 800. i wont be using any big camera set ups, but I will be using a slider system so that needs to hold steady.

Do the knock offs re-sell OK or should I stick with Manfrotto and other brand names?

What load capacity should cover GH4 with full rig up to slider system will Cinema Camera?

I am looking at this http://cvp.com/index.php?t=product/manfrotto_504hd546gbk

I would go with this one: Manfrotto 535 MPRO.

Only heard good things about it.

20kg load capacity, lightweight construction, good price.

Also take a look at this ball head:

All you need now is a Manfrotto half-ball mount and you are good to go, still under 800. And probably much more future proof than the 504, this ball head takes gear up to 15kg.
