Very short and very small. Keep in mind that this is by no means a heavyweight. It's very light and can do so much. Don't expect to put a heavy SLR rig on it and let it do what you're supposed to do. There's no quick-release mount, convertible spiked legs, convertible B-pillar, etc. Because that's not what it's made for. In any case, it has an efficient pan/tilt head and the rod control is light and fast. The B-pillar lock and leg locks are plastic and don't feel strong, but they work great and if not abused will last a long time. The build is solid enough to hold something heavy, but the feel of the tripod suggests it's better suited to low-angle cameras or body mirrorless cameras. If I had to mount a 500mm lens on a full size DSLR, I'm sure I could handle it with a tripod ring attached to the lens. but I wouldn't do it. It doesn't matter what since I use a mirrorless camera with small lenses and a small body. I use it more often for my spotting scope at the shooting range. It's small, light and strong enough to be easily spotted. It's also short enough to be seen from a bench and can be raised just enough to show from a prone position. I would definitely buy it again. I have another SLIK travel tripod which I am also very happy with. Also a Manfrotto/Bogen user.
