Pros:Excellent material, good quality, suitable for all the supports, optimum head
Cons:Sometimes a little too stiff in his arms, but perhaps it is a merit
Opinion:I use it with a Nikon D750 plus Sigma 24/105. Supports both excellently. Used as a tripod for landscapes and hooked to any kind of pipes/railings, never disappointed, just "force" a little and he fits everything he finds. Anecdote: I was doing long night exposures for trails of cars in front of a church, tied a to a pole of the prohibition of parking, posing B... pass the Carabinieri and ask me if I placed well the "speed camera"...
Pros:Very light, small and transportable on every occasion, you can really avvinghiare it everywhere
Cons:Nothing
Opinion:I use it with Canon 6d and 16/35F4 or Sigma 24/105 and I must say it does not make a fold of course with a little attention especially with the Sigma which unbalances a bit given its weight, otherwise it is more firm than what you can imagine. In the itinerant photos in the towns or villages is excellent because on walls and benches used as lifts you use it as a normal tripod otherwise you can hold it on railings, stakes, branches and everything that can hold the weight of your camera and also for long Night exposure or with filters.
Pros:Small, light, very versatile, boarded in the cabin without fuss.
Cons:Nobody
Opinion:Very good "toy": I first had a Chinese copy of cheap, I left it to a friend, now I have the focus with its head, it's quite another thing. It is not cheap, but very versatile and transportable, so it is worth the price. I used it with 5D3 + 16-35 f4 is/24-105 F4 is, but even with the 70-200 F 2.8 is II, and also held with the latter. N.B.: Allows you to bring a tripod replacement even in the cabin on low-cost flights.
Opinion:mini tripod truly exceptional, I have combined with a ball head Manfrotto and the couple is excellent. very stable and very light to carry around. I also run long exposures during the day with the ND filters and gave no signs of weakness. also for the chance to hook it everywhere I recommend it
Opinion:A fantastic mini tripod; the right is stable and allows long exposures if anchored well. The legs can be tied to any structure (balconies - railings - poles) and the rubber rings offer a good seal. Council to match it to the head Ballhead X for a more versatile use because otherwise you have to balance the reflex by moving the legs. I never brought to 5kg limit of lead but with about 2.5kg gets along very well.
Pros:construction, light weight, compactness and adaptability.
Cons:nothing
Opinion:I decided to take the focus for support for holidays, weight and dimensions are ideal for a tripod travel. Obviously does not replace a traditional tripod, but it is of great help in places like the cities where, however, no shortage of pretexts. If you put it down without tie it to a support, better to use the self-timer to reduce vibration. Fundamental head.
Pros:Quality materials, perfect realization, lightness, compactness and adaptability to the bag in which you want to store.
Cons:Nothing. It may seem a bit 'expensive, but I think it's costing EUR.
Opinion:After purchasing the model SRL-Zoom and having appreciated features and ease of use, I decided to take even the Focus to have greater capacity and stability, although it has slightly larger in size and weight. After a good year of use, the Gorilla has become indispensable to me. It is clear that it does not replace a traditional tripod, but it can help to not rimpiangerne often lack (especially on the road). I absolutely recommend to equip its ball head, really good. Headless, in fact, it becomes almost impossible to adjust the framing.
