I declare that I was initially very skeptical about the characteristics of this object, but as soon as I was able to collect it, I immediately realized that it was a quality product. Let's start with the weight, a feature that many underestimate but that offers great stability, just like in this case. 1.5 kg of aluminum which will help you shoot much sharper. Absolutely practical to transport thanks to the bag in which it is contained and above all thanks to its small size: 40 cm when closed which allowed me to store it safely in hand luggage. At its maximum extension it measures 150cm and thanks to the excellent leg locking systems it will be extremely stable. The ball joint is very smooth and the camera can be rotated very easily. The well-designed screw mount, structured to firmly hold the camera on the tripod. Ability to take wonderful panoramic photos thanks to a small wheel which, if unscrewed, allows you to slowly and absolutely steadily rotate the camera. A small highlight of this tripod is the possibility, thanks to an supplied Allen key, to unscrew a tripod leg to use it as a monopod.
