Title: very good for the price
Review: I bought this tripod for my Celestron Ultima 100 spotting scope. It does a very good job for such equipment. It is very stable and sturdy, so there is no image vibration, even when zooming at 66X. I agree with other reviewers that you need to adjust initially the pretension for the elevation angle bolt (I did it with a wrench as someone suggested). After adjusting that, the control in elevation is very smooth. The control in azimuth is also smooth from factory, so no need for adjusting it. The construction quality is OK, and most of the components are metal, no plastic, which is not usual at this low price level. This tripod is somewhat bulkier and heavier than the compact ones. Still, I have carried it along in the field in a 36" bag, and even as carry-on in airplanes.
