This is my first tripod that I have owned and could not be happier. I’ve used my friend’s tripods and they do not compare to this one. So far all the tilts, swivels and panning are smooth and easy to adjust. I have only used it indoors and it is quite sturdy even when fully extended. At full extension, I have a good view of the screen on the camera/camcorder (I am 5’11″ or 180cm) without breaking my back. I have been using this with a 15.9oz (~450g or 1lbs) camera/camcorder with no issues. Everything locks in place nicely and the carry bag is great. I can fit my chargers inside with the tripod. It’s also nice and lightweight. I am very happy with this purchase and recommend this to any amateur photo/video enthusiast looking for a decent tripod. Hope this helps.
I like this tripod. The build quality is solid and the motion is smooth. The setup is quick and the unit is lightweight. I’ve used it with my camcorder and found the panning quite satisfactory. The carry case is nice and durable and has plenty of space for extras. I feel the construction is solid, a good value. Its great for a home user looking for a quality tripod.
I ordered this as a gift for my son-in-law. He really likes it. Uses it quite often.
I picked this up as my higher end tripod got lost in a recent move. This one is sturdy, lightweight and easy to use. I have a DSLR, so I wanted to be sure that this would handle it, and it does, however you really have to tighten the screw A LOT (more than I remember having to do on my other tripod, which is the reason I gave it 4/5 stars) which makes me fearful that it’s going to get stripped out sometime. Once it’s on there more than securely, it won’t budge. I can tilt the camera to a vertical position and it doesn’t slip to view the ground. It holds nice and steady. I’ve used it for some HDR, and it’s really stable. I love that it comes with a carrying case, makes it easy to bring along w/out weighing you down. If you’re looking for something that’s inexpensive, but still good quality, this one won’t disappoint you.
Nice tripod, bought it for video camera. Works out fine. Solid and easy to move camera around. Slik, makes a sound product. It does come with a bag too. Plastic crank is only reason I gave it a 4 not 5 star. Sets up In a flash too, just pull down one leg. SMOOTH TRIPOD.
