Great for the price. I would buy it again immediately. When I think about what my Manfrotto with ball head cost me before!

I bought the carbon tripod because I finally wanted a ball head :-). The tripod is incredibly light and yet very stable. The screw caps are easy to open and then tighten again. The camera sits great on the ball head and is then super adjustable. The fixing screws are smooth-running and yet very easy to fix.

The tripod has a good basis for me, it has clip fasteners. I don't use twist locks, I think these are more susceptible to dirt or sand in the thread.
It's a good size: it's not exactly compact, in the normal folded working position it's a bit large at 55 cm on small backpacks. But even without the center column extended, it reaches a working height of 1.38 m, which is great. The tripod head is OK, Arca Swiss plates fit on it.
For practical use: When there is no wind, I can work with Fuji DSLMs without any problems, I was even able to use my Nikon D7500 here. Whereby this represents the maximum size in terms of weight, for large full-frame cameras you need heavier tripods. When there was no wind, I was even able to use a Fuji with a small telephoto without the pictures being blurred. When there is little wind, I also use it to record videos.
The quality is very good for the price. Of course I can't compare the quality and durability with my heavy Manfrotto, but that cost almost 300 euros even with a large ball head. And especially on longer hikes, I don't feel like lugging around the heavy tripod. I am very satisfied with the tripod, I think the price/performance ratio is great.

I own several tripods. Hands down, none of them even comes close to the quality of this finely engineered, precision instrument. EVERY moving piece on this tripod is SOOOO smooth – even the screw cap locks for the leg extensions just effortlessly loosen and tighten, and the ball head rotates like the finest telescope. If you’re serious about your photography or videography, this tripod will not let you down.
It’s a fantastic tripod of superior quality and comes with everything you need to start shooting right out of the box
