Would have loved this but just not considered "professional" or "Heavy Duty" if the top of the tripod (the part that gets used the most) is made of plastic. Great set of features though, but just to expect to last a long time.

Really good and durable. First trip to Seattle. Took some cool shots at Kerry park. Compact and very extensible

I've only used my tripod during one outing and had no problem once I got accustomed to the differences between it and my old one. Used a Nikon D7200 with a Tamron 140-600 mm lens with no problem capturing herons and butterflies even in flight. Not normally a tripod user but it did work quite well and appears sturdy.The quick release not as quick as my former tripod as it's screw to tighten as opposed to a lever but it does appear to hold the camera much tighter and I was always concerned with accidental movement of lever with the old one. Probably not the best person to recommend tripods as I rarely use them but found it quite versatile and appears of decent quality and durability which only time can attest to.

Received the tripod on time and intact. The tripod works well and is easy to set up and transport. My only concern is the lack of a handle to pan around with camera. However, this was not the primary reason I picked this tripod over others. Overall, I am pleased with it and look forward to its continued usage.

Its is pretty versatile. Legs articulate well. Cons.. salt water and small knobs instead of lever handles.

I personally really like this tripod. It is just as described. I have used it a lot ever since i got it.

This is my first Tripod and I must say I'm very impressed with everything about it. Didn't want to get the cheapest available but also had to stick with a budget so this fit the bill nicely. I was a little sceptical that it would be up to the job but no worries there at all. Very sturdy. Lightweight but still has some substance to it. All the connections and locks feel solid. On top of this, it absolutely just looks the part. Would 100% recommend to anyone.
