 Overall Recommended! I have 3 tripods of this brand and they are lasted so far 3 years. Good value for the money.Pros:Made of metalDecent sized ball headArca swiss compatibleCan be used for overhead shotsSturdyIncludes sturdy carrying bagCons:mechanism is lever based and I prefer the twist to adjust but this is just personal preference

Excellent tripod for an excellent price. Good 360 degree rotation and a cinch to get up and running. Clips are also added to the legs to stop it springing open. It’s really nicely finished and with its weight feels like quality and it would need some force to knock over. The bag you get is well stitched, has an inside pocket for storage as well as a double zip opening on front. Is also has an attached carrying strap and comes with a shoulder strap. Inside the bag is a detachable handle for the tripod that can be used in the left or right hand.Worthy 5 stars

Un trípode perfecto para grabaciones de vídeo.

Works as it should, sturdy and well made, it extends to an astonishing height if needed, very solid.

The tripod comes with a case where we can store both the tripod itself and some accessories since there is a pretty good place, and it also includes a strap to hang on the shoulder and carry the carrying bag, in addition, the case is of good quality and is a very positive point that it is included. We have a very configurable tripod, load capacity of up to 8kg, quick release mount for your DSLR, 3 different positions, without unfolding at 84cm, with only one section 134cm and with the two sections open 184cm. The head of the mount allows us to rotate 360° and we also include an accessory to be able to tilt and move the camera without having to be so close. In addition, although it is not included, you can attach a support to one of the threads. connect a screen and have the camera view there without having to touch the camera. The leg locking system is very simple but I think it is wonderful, it has clicks between two legs so that they cannot be opened easily, Furthermore, since it is made of plastic, in case you lose one or one breaks, you can 3D print identical pieces and hold it without a problem, since it is not a very difficult piece to replicate. As for how the legs open, It has threads that have one and a half turns to open them and you can actually lock it at a height that is not the maximum of its section, it is very easy to deploy and open it in a moment. The assembly of the tripod in general is very simple, in addition, Whoever uses this type of tripod is not a novice and can certainly appreciate the high quality of construction materials that it has. If you are looking for a professional tripod to take a leap in quality in materials, here you have a high quality and very Versatile that you can use for a long time.

The following are the advantages that we have found in this professional video tripod:✅ It has a quick release plate system to fix the camera.✅ It comes with spare screws for the fixing head✅ It looks very robust and well built (in aluminum ). The finishes are very good.✅ Very versatile. It has a highly variable height configurable range. 84 cm at the minimum point. At the highest point 185 cm. In addition, the height adjustment system is very quick and easy to use. The head can rotate 360 degrees, tilt 160 degrees and ✅ The weight without camera (which is 3.88 kg) feels quite light when handling the tripod. ✅ The carrying case also looks resistant and well finished. ⚠️ It has a small problem with the handles. These are not in the center and when you pick up the bag it is not straight and twists. But since it comes with a strap we can solve this problem by using it⚠️So far I have not found any problems.

A lovely tripod with many features , it can be a little complicated setting up with the vast amount of clips and screws. However once setup its a nice stable tripod with the leveler gauge at the top. Unfortunately it is in a little bit of a awkward place. However that's me been picky.It's lightweight as it's made from aluminium and is neatly stored with a nice bag that can be easy be transported with the shoulder strap incuded.The 360 degree fluid Head with its quick release plate works really well and helps stabilise the camera in its plate. The height is good with a adjustable length from 84cm to a massive 1.84m which is great for getting over large crowds . The weight allowance of 17.6 lbs is suitable for most dslrs camera and slt mirror less cameras; Including camcorders.Overall a good design tripod for starglazing, wedding photos and videos . Virtually can be used anywhere as the foot print is pretty small.

I did a lot of research and was previously convinced that this would be perfect for my hybrid photography.
One should buy fluid head and that is the most economical in price but not in terms of quality.
I thought of Manfrotto BeeLive but it was too light and no monopod possible.
positives:
+ Very very sturdy
+ When extending 171cm from 191cm as a monopod
+ Panning is very smooth
+ Tilting is smooth as well
+ Ease of use
+ Good looking
+ We can fully control the rigidity of both axes of movement with the given screw knobs.
+ Can easily turn down the liquid head for a close-up shot
+ Can easily hang more weight with the hook to make it more stable.
+ Economical, half the price. Hold the liquid head and

If you want to use L-Bracket, you need to buy an adapter, the included quick release adapter perfectly fits any camera with 1/4 or 3/8 screw, but it is wider than common L-Bracket 39mm x 10mm.
3kg weight was not a criterion for me. Manfrotto BeeLive is 1.4 kg, but certainly not more robust. What I needed
was certainly a monopod.
Negative
- One will find it a bit confusing to balance with built in two mind levels. But you will soon learn.
We need to use the lever to pull so that the ball head will start tilting.
- The quick release plate could have been longer, 150mm instead of 100m which is supplied. It would have made the camera more stable with a longer lens. This would have made Panorama much better.

As a final criticism, I am very satisfied with the tripod and am looking for a long pleasant working with it.
I can recommend it without hesitation.
