The tripod arrived on time and as was expected. It is well made and the gimbal head came with the tripod to camera fixing plate which was helpful.The legs extend to a good height (I'm six feet tall) and fold into a compact design for carrying.This tripod emulates much more expensive models and is ideal for the serious hobbyist so yes a good buy.

This is robust and great value for money tripod. Easy to use and unfold.It is not easy to carry on weekend trip cause it is still remains long even fully folded.

Received this item very quickly and first impressions were very good. Nice quality packaging and the included carry bag is one of the reasons I went for this model rather than other similar looking items by other manufacturers. After a quick play around to work out what everything did, I attached the quick release plate to my Olympus EM1 and tried it at different heights and positions to test stability. Ideally, I wanted to buy one of the more expensive carbon fibre models but at over twice the price, I couldn't really justify it at this stage. I've taken it 'on location' just once so far but am very impressed with ease of set up and stability for the price I paid. The rotating ball head unit feels very solid and on the whole, for the money, I can't imagine there is anything better on the market.

Bought as a travel tri-pod, good choice, light and easy to use, very compact. My partner has also used it while scanning negatives, being able to attached the camera upside down on the central column is very useful.
