Cons:The final rubber tip of the various feet unscrewed... and you lose
Opinion:Light, well-crafted and quite compact. A good tool for travel or excursions. The ability to convert a leg into a monopod makes it very versatile. With heavy optics it is definitely not granite; I wouldn't shoot at 1/10 of a second with a 500mm f4, but still manages to do its job (clearly the head affects the result). As I said the final rubber part of each individual leg is screwed and this gignifica that unscrewed if not fixed with a brake or similar. Unfortunately, in a short time I lost one, not realizing it.
Opinion:As soon as you take it in your hand you immediately feel the robustness of the materials (aluminum and plastic) and the care in the construction. On the field it behaves quite well, very stable even in strong wind conditions. As mentioned in the previous review, supplied in addition to the brugola set for maintenance, we find the metal tips for the most difficult terrains. The transformation from tripod to monopod is quite quick and easy, making it quite versatile. The bag is well made even if the seams are not quite perfect (negligible detail). Coupled with a Benro B1 ball head I find it more than perfect for my needs as a photo-amateur. Great product.
Pros:Attention to detail, weight, size, standard accessories.
Cons:In the bag supplied does not enter with the head.
Opinion:Tripod really well built, solid, although it has some plastic parts absolutely does not affect with the stability and durability. In outfit are supplied the metallic tips and the set of Allen for maintenance, Adjusting the precise legs, predictable center column that allows you to turn the tripod into a monopod... The Only flaw found is that in the bag, of excellent workmanship, there is only the body of the tripod and there is no room to insert the head...
