Review on 55&#34 by Maurice Ford

I was very pleased when I took it out of the box for the first time. Seemed strong and easy to use. BUT the platform for mounting the camera was not level. I looked closely and saw that the lever that releases the bracket is preventing it from seating properly. The screw holding this lever has been loosened and cannot be tightened. I was afraid the mount would break and drop my camera. Also, I would have to fix one leg permanently to get the camera straight. No thank you.
