Well done!
I state that I already have a Manfrotto 546GB with a 504HD head (great headstand), I needed a second tripod but I had no intention of accessing a mortgage to buy it... so I will compare it to this...
what can I say I was amazed at the quality... I was expecting a cinesata but had to change my mind, large size, closed it is the size of a photo tripod, it has a fantastic carrying case, a liquid head with different adjustments, adjustments, bubbles, etc., dimensions during use both in height and in perfect dimensions, possibility of using them as a monopod.

Let's go to the dark side...
The weight is definitely not light, the head I still say good does not have all the Manfrotto head adjustments, for example the adjustable clutch for horizontal movement... which is present on Manfrotto and is not present here... but we always consider the price, the head movement boom is a little short and non-telescopic, there is no three-foot base in monopod mode, so you get tired of holding it in place for long-term use. The hooks for tightening the tripod rods seem undersized to me, but it still does their dirty work.
Conclusion Manfrotto is still Manfrotto... but this Cayer surprised me.
... And good!
