It can't be worse! A waste of money.

After receiving the goods, I checked everything, the tripod head is of dubious quality, for replacement in the future. 1 gum from the site was already peeled off. I had to return the goods after, after 10 minutes of home checking, the rubber pads on the legs of the tripod began to move away, and to scroll as well. I don’t know if this is a marriage, or non-compliance with storage rules, but they are held only by glue, they are not poured into the structure, you need to know this before buying.

Pros
  • Tilting and swivel center column, locking every 15 degrees. Very comfortable, and no backlash when clamping. 4 tripod leg positions. Tripod and tripod head level.
Cons
  • Not comfortable, tight, locks restrict the angle of the legs of the tripods. One of the 3 was too tight. There is no hook for weighting the bar. Replaceable legs (spikes) are bought separately for 2.000 (032022g)

Great for my YouTube videos!

I needed a sturdy tripod to record YouTube videos. I love the versatility of this tripod! My favorite is the arrow that helps me shoot art videos over my head.

Pros
  • Tripods and monopods
Cons
  • Something's wrong

Stable yet flexible, ideal for tall people

This is great. the best tripod I've ever had. I'm 6'4" and have a bad back and this thing is really comfortable and I also have very stable controls that quickly become intuitive. I use it on both the Nikon P900 and the telescope, each with an adapter plate , and I'm getting rid of my other Guardian tripods!

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Small problems

Great tripod Overall

Overall this is a great tripod and very durable, especially for regular tripod use. A DSLR that makes ordinary tripods wobble when autofocusing. This tripod almost completely eliminates AF shake and is much easier to set up and adjust quickly when I need to shoot quickly. When I use it to record my art videos I use the hover function and it works great for what it does. I only have three small complaints 1. The center column is not long enough to fully meet my needs. I believe if it was 6-8…

Pros
  • Camera and photo
Cons
  • Some little things
