Revainrating 5 out of 5

Compact, strong and easy to use

Installation - Very easy to use. - Very easy to mount and remove the camera on the tripod. - It is very easy and quick to install. - There are hinges on the legs for adjusting the tripod legs at different angles. In general, I can set up this tripod with one hand if necessary. Stability. This tripod has a center pole for adding weights for extra stability. uneven surfaces and never had stability issues. - Stretching all my legs makes me paranoid about going too far from the tripod, but although I haven't seen any problems with that. Ease of Use - I was able to set up this tripod in a variety of areas. The beauty of this tripod is that I don't have to set it up at a specific camera angle. The ball head moves in all directions and I can level the camera very easily by just turning 2 knobs under the camera. This saved me a lot of time and effort. Overall - This tripod is made of carbon fiber so it's lightweight compared to several other tripods you can travel with. - It has great stability even with low weight. - It's very small when folded, so I managed to fit it in my carry-on bag. - The monopod is very comfortable and easy to put on and take off. I found it difficult to follow the instructions that came with it, so I basically tried trial and error. A small problem I have now is when I tilt the camera to -90 degrees. Sometimes I find it difficult to make the camera stable. But I need to do more research and figure out how to do it.

Pros
  • Recessed Center Stand Hook: A spring-loaded recessed hook on the underside of the center stand allows additional weight to be hung on the tripod's center of gravity for added stability. Separate Head and Pan Lock: Individual head tension and lock knob and pan lock help you find the right setup.
Cons
  • You could have chosen a newer model
