- I have seen some reviews on this tripod where they say that something or another is not strong. I would agree. Although, I am happy they did not create this using a lot of heavy metal or it would not be lightweight or compact. Also, if they used a lot of expensive alloys, it would be a lot more expensive.
- With all the unique set-up options available, I call this a specialty tripod. It gives me the opportunity to create a picture or video that is different than when using a standard tripod.
- When I used this tripod fully extended and the legs were close together, my 2 pound camera was not stable in a strong wind. But when I put a 20 lb photography weight bag on the provided hook that is at the bottom of the center arm, the tripod became extremely stable. I now store an empty weight bag in this tripod’s carry case so when I’m on-site, I can fill it with rocks, sand and even water with the plastic bag I also included.
- The small provided carry case looks well-made and has a longer carry strap, so is very easy to carry when doing a shoot out of the studio.
- I really like that I can set the three legs at separate heights and angles and even mount the ball head going down between the legs.
- There are so many angle options on this tripod, I am thinking that I need to become much more creative to use them all.
- The provided bubble level works when the head is upright but not when the head is going down.
