Manfrotto Pixi EVO

Pros: Compactness, versatility, portability, in relation to the size.

Cons: attachment plate to the plastic camera that swings the machine.

Opinion: I chose this model because I needed a lightweight support to carry with you, maybe in your backpack or on a plane, without being pretentious. Before buying the Pixi Ages I read several reviews, especially in comparison to the version pixi base that is defined by some more stable. In fact, having had the opportunity to try both in the store, I confirm that the legs of the Pixi are stiffer and give a feeling of greater stability, but the ball head is not strong enough to support a tightening D7200 with 18-200 which tends to yield. This is why I opted for the version Evo.rn The ball head is really good and the screw tightening, shows no signs of slowing down even with sigma 105 mounted, clearly once fixed have to calculate a few centimeters of oscillation. Legs adjustable in length and inclination, are made of aluminum coated plastic and once positioned and stabilized the SLR are sufficiently stable. Only downside is the attachment plate that is made in rather elastic plastic, therefore nDespite the legs and the sphere are perfectly stable SLR continues to oscillate for a few seconds after placement. Clearly this phenomenon is less obvious by mounting optical lighter, however, in my opinion, you must use the self-timer or remote control, because the slightest touch would sway reflex getting blurred images. Clearly can not replace a traditional tripod (I xpro3 a 055 and a 394-pq), but I would advise the Pixi Ages for those who want a portable and discreet support that allows for the PDR very special and with the necessary precautions ( no wind and vibration, remote control) allows you to also shoot long exposures. 8 vote, if he had had an aluminum plate as the ball would have given 10.
