Cons:Bad head supplied (as already reviewed), the hinges of the legs tend to loosen going from very rigid to very soft.
Opinion:After 2 years of use I consider this easel (I do not express myself on the head because reviewed in the section of the forum dedicated to the heads) mediocre, without praise and without infamy even if it often makes you nervous, the screws that hold the legs often pass from too hard and therefore to open the easel you have to give a certain strength, to too soft dancers and therefore you must always have the Allen with you to adjust the tightening. So if I have to get nervous about a tripod and then shoot badly... I prefer to switch to another brand (which I did), at the beginning the genesis excites a lot, it costs little, I have a carbon tripod, head with clutch ... what more could you want!... but after a while you use it... passes the desire to shoot with the tripod.
Pros:Price, equipment (head BH34, carrycot, removable rubber feet to use the tips, monopod, short column, long column, otherwise mountable)
Cons:They tend to loosen all the mechanisms, even the screw that connects head and column with the risk of seeing the head fall with camera attached. It is Necessary to check periodically the tightening of all the screws
Opinion:I normally keep It in the car so I believe that the changes in temperature are the cause of continuous loosening in the mechanisms. The correct tightening of the head the control at every use for the joints of the legs must be tightened from time to time. The value for money is absolutely excellent, the product is very versatile and in a position to be resealed really manageable and not cumbersome. Moreover, in the price, very very competitive, are present all the options that you can hope from the bag with shoulder strap (padded and very protective) to the short column to get to the ground and obviously the screws for maintenance. I also Appreciate the fact that by removing the rubbers underneath there are the metallic tips.
Opinion:Younger brother of the C5, this Tripod wowed me from the beginning just got caught in the hands. From the feeling of having in your hands a Professinal object, it is sturdy and weighs little for the size it has. It is not among the lightest true, but they are nothing having a massma extension of 1.71 Mt. The structure is 4 sections and the legs all extended are very stable, the Allen screws do not give up at all after a few uses, remain fixed where they are even after several uses. I tried it with a Sony A7RIII + the Sony 70-200 GM 2.8 and the day was windy, without putting a weight on the stability, it was all beautiful stationary without making anything vibrate. At the ends, there are rubbers that can be lifted and space in their place to some steel tips to ground the tripod on the ground. The adjustment of the three legs rotates at 180 ° and has various stop steps that really allows to adapt it to all types of terrendo. I took the Kit with the head BH34 paid on 200 euros, even the column is nice sturdy. To be a Cip Tripod is not at all to dismiss it for this. Sold with a bag very well made and inside are located in a pocket of the Allen keys, and a metal pipe that serves to be mounted instead of the column. There are companies that know how to do things and know how to sell at a good price, this is an example. Absolutely happy with the purchase made I would recommend it for those wishing to switch to carbon
Opinion:Excellent tripod in relation to the price. I'm not happy with the components, because the pins that fix the legs to the central body are unmanageable: they immediately become helmets with the use and, if you close them too much, you can not open the leg. The result is that I must always have two wrench in my pocket, ready to intervene in case of need.... and this happens several times each exit.
