Thanks for all your helpful comments!
I'm excited to report I've just ordered a Bogen Manfrotto 728B from B & H:

This seems to perfectly fit my need for a lightweight tripod for my ZR65. I originally considered purchasing the 718B because of its lighter weight:

But the B & H salesman said the 728B offered a smoother and better range of panning.
Is anyone familiar with either model? I hope I made the right choice!
Disappointingly, neither the 728B nor the 718B have a bubble level that are ever-present on cheaper, plastic models.
