Review on Compact Manfrotto Befree Advanced Tripod with Lever Closure, Travel Tripod Kit including Ball Head, Lightweight Aluminium Tripod for DSLR, Reflex, and Mirrorless Cameras, Camera Accessories by Mike Robinson

Great tripod to take with you when travelling. It is light, quick to set up and well made. Some things I noticed and didn't like are that it can be painful to take the camera off the tripod. At times it feels like the camera mount is stuck in the tripod and the shutter release mechanism is difficult to operate, but that can only be because it's not worn out. I'm not sure. When the tripod is fully extended and placed on an uneven surface, it will bounce slightly (due to the construction and weight of the camera). I definitely wouldn't use it fully extended on a windy day as a tripod would vibrate/wobble so easily. Other than that, this is a great tripod.
