I really like this tripod! It's not too big and not too small. I do food photography indoors and when it's fully extended I have enough space to work in the kitchen without tripping over it. I spent a good week trying to figure out which one I wanted and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. I've only been shooting for a year and this is a great tripod for me that meets all my needs (plus some). It doesn't have a spirit level, but that's ok because it's built into my camera. I know some people have mentioned that some Manfrotto tripods tend to pinch the user, but this particular one has never given me any problems. It's made like a rock, but I wish the plastic buttons in the head were a little more durable (I wonder if they'll wear out or wear out over time, but time will tell). Sorry I can't write a professional review but I'm not a pro, I can only tell you what I experienced with it from an amateur's perspective. I use it for my blog, safe food, family, fun, dot com.
