Title: A Great Starter for the Next Level
Review: Overall: A great bargain for an intermediate photographer seeking a light, versatile, travel tripod of carbon fiber material without spending over $1000. I put this on a wish list and received as a gift after searching dozens of options by Manfrotto, Bogen, and the like. Essentially, I found that you would need to pay at least twice the price to get a kit (including adjustable head) for similar quality.Typical Usage: Long exposure and stability shots for a heavy Canon 1Ds with an L-series 70-200mm lens (at least 8 lbs.)Pros: Price, portability, construction, solidity, strength/weight ratio, resistance to slipping exceptionalCons: Doesn't allow for upgrading with professional attachments (e.g. ballhead) from other providers; vinyl travel bag a bit cheap; somewhat of a hassle to "fold away" the head within the case; having to adjust two knobs rather than a single trigger ballhead a bit time consuming
