Easy to use and adjusts in a number of different areas
This product was sent to me for review and its important to know from the onset that its available in 4 different types; TM2324, TM2515, TC2534 and TM2534. I received the TM2324. If you look a few lines below the price section you will see the 4 models available and clicking on each one changes the details on the page.It comes well presented with terrific padding and the carry case that it comes with is well padded, with a strong zip and strong handles. The quality of the tripod is high and its made mainly of magnesium aluminium alloy. Overall it's medium weight and fully extends to 1350mm.The design on this is modern, classic, steampunk and it adjusts in quite a few different areas, offering a great deal of flexibility. Starting at the bottom, there are rubber pads present with a durable look, it adjusts in 3 separate parts just above the legs and these are controlled by a simple yet secure mechanism. Next up is the grip on 1 leg which allows you to carry it without the zipped case.The legs themselves can move inwards or outwards and can be controlled independently and the mechanism allows that to happen easily too. The middle section can also adjust about a ruler length, up or down. Just before you get to the middle section you get the soft hand strap and I personally found that to be very useful when it was using it to take photos of a waterfall on uneven rocks.The top unit can adjust in even more ways as you can move your camera left, right, forward, back and anywhere in between. The adjuster on that is tiny but it works well. The section underneath can also twist clockwise and anti-clockwise and that completes the adjustment tour!.The camera attachment on top is an universal one and gets controlled by a small adjuster on the side. I was more than happy with its performance and from all the large tripods that I have used, this is certainly the one that can be adjust the easiest.I also like the bronzy detailing and it goes very well with the black colour. You also get the spirit level on top which worked well and will be essential for certain individuals.Verdict: Easy to use and adjusts in a number of different areas
