Title: This is a piece of junk, don't buy it.
Review: First, let me say that I bought a Canon Optura 50 miniDV camera and have been absolutely thrilled by it. It surpassed everything I was hoping for in a miniDV camera.That's why I bought this tripod: I figured if it worked like the camera it would be a great combo.The guy at the camera store warned me there was a lot of plastic on this tripod and suggested getting a different brand, but I didn't take his advice.Sure enough, the very first time using the tripod a tiny little piece on one of the plastic snaps that keeps the legs achored to the center pole broke, allowing the leg to flop around freely with no bracing.The break is one of those places that plastic shouldn't have been used it all. It was all very aggravating: an otherwise great tripod rendered useless by broken sliver of plastic. That was really poor design on Canon's part.When I take it back tomorrow, I'm definitely going to heed the camera guy's advice.
