Good travel tripod, good value
It's a nice lightweight tripod that folds up into a fairly small package. It's good for a travel tripod. Due to its construction materials, I would be careful of dropping it. However, it's a good tradeoff for its weight improvement over my Manfrotto. I wouldn't take my hand off of it if it's windy, but the hook underneath should stead it if you hang a heavy enough bag on it. If you're planning to put an SLR on this that isn't one of those lightweight intro models, I would definitely use a bag weight underneath. Otherwise the setup will be fairly top heavy and a little unstable.The one annoying thing is that the head has a screw in tightener instead of a lever-based clip for the plate on the head. It makes getting a camera on and off a little annoying. It's a small quibble for the price of it ($80 on a Lightning deal, $100 regular) and the feature set you get with it.
