Very Nice Tripod

the video tool from Charlotte, North Carolina

I received this tripod last week and have run it through all of the typical setups. It's camera tube is useful for switching from vertical to horizontal. I installed a Really Right Stuff BH-55 Ballhead and can shoot vertically down or anywhere in between. It's rock solid stable. I compared this pod to many Gitzo, Manfroto, Slik and others.

My Giottos lava tripod busted when I tightened the leg. Yup cracked big time. Stay away from Basalt lava tripods. Light but brittle. I needed a light but sturdy tripod to replace it. One that fit on my camera backpack while I go trudging through the desert and canyons. As I just got this I can see it has great construction and great quality. The center column design is a fantastic feature. If you are always seaching for the cool angle or find it difficult to close in for macros. It will surely help in that.
