> How about stainless steel rods?

Peter,
Good question.

Stainless steel is always an option, for sure, but for an 18" set of 
15mm aluminum rods, we're talking roughly one pound (almost half a 
kilogram). With an 18" set of 15mm stainless steel rods, it's almost 3 
pounds (roughly 1.36 kilograms).

Those 2 extra pounds may not seem like much at first, but every pound 
starts to add up once you lug a heavy camera around for a few hours...

Of course, there's always titanium, but it's really expensive...
