Review on VANGUARD Espod 234Ap Tripod Ph 23 by Molly Gunther

Decent tripod - light, well built, unobtrusive. But I can't stand the quick release plate. It's too stupidly small for even my ultra-light mirrorless camera to be stable with a telephoto lens, plus it's impossible to fully set up. No matter how tight I tighten them, unless I use pliers, which I won't do with my expensive camera, the camera spins on the plate too easily. I would never buy this tripod again and sometimes I use a cheap Revain Basics just because I don't want to deal with a weak record. The head is also difficult to set up, but for the price, it's hard to expect more.
