Robust design, good mid level tripod.
Robust, well built design. And very very very tall. Very easy to set up. Has all the design features of a mid range tripod. The only part that it looks like they skimped on, is the adjustment handle which is hollow plastic. And is replaceable, if it bothers you. Assembly required, but very simple. Only thing of note is that you have to push on that hollow handle to get it to thread. Not an issue, just expect to need to do it. The mounting plate for the attachments with the 1/4 screw is a bit different from cheap plates. Hold the attachment up to the plate, and screw in the screw from the underside of the plate, can't just twist the attachment down onto the screw. I like this, it's more precise, instead of getting attachments that end up sitting halfway crooked on the tripod. As the advert says, it's made of aluminum. That's better for weight. But I will miss being able to attach things to the legs via magnets. All around please with the purchase, great product. Read more
