The following opinions have been automatically translated with Google Translate.
Pros:Lightweight, economical, versatile. Ideal for not too demanding outings.
Cons:For the service for which it is intended, I find none.
Opinion:You have to get to grips with it. Do not pretend to use it to the maximum extension (raising the central rod), with machine and canvases all extended. I'm using it with the R5 mounted by 100-500, I find no limitations; Of course I do not abandon it to the wind, I always keep it with one hand on the bracket of the tele. It almost reaches the vertical, if the odd leg is on the opposite side to the operator. The red button, taken on amazon, costs a hyperbole. In the photo shop I paid 7 euros
Pros:Cheap, great for getting started, it's not fragile (unlike other entry level tripods), light so convenient for travel.
Cons:The cost of the plate that you use to attack the camera (minimum price €30, then more than half of the tripod to start)
Opinion:I'm still a beginner in the use of tripods, but already from the first use I fell in love with this compact tripod. It's great for trips and most importantly you don't feel it too much in the back. As I wrote in the cons, careful not to lose the plate otherwise are cà # Ài Amari. For what you spend is good, the head is comfortable to use and you could also use it initially for videomaking. I recommend absolutely buying
Opinion:Great travel tripod, lightweight and small, but stable and at a good price. The only real defect is the head that after a minimum of usage no longer holds an entrylevel with the 18-55, let alone a pro with zoom 2.8 ... the head is also limited in the movements especially vertical ones. Voting 5. Not recommended.
Pros:Weight, price, ease of handling, head fit for both video and photo
Cons:The final legs are a bit small and delicate
Opinion:I bought this tripod matched with a sleeveless monopod, is great for entry level reflexes and not too bulky camcorders. The head is fluid and is comfortable for video tracking. Vertically it is not easy to use because the head joystick can not tilt vertically completely, but all in all is a great product and not demanding. I recommend to those looking for a tall and light tripod to always bring it with you
Pros:Egonomics, use the wheel and usability in general, leggereza,
Cons:Positions, weight supported, final leg
Opinion:Use this safe standing tripod from now so long and is with me at any time I go out to take pictures, it is ideal for all occasions! Size and weight are not exaggerated, in fact, is conveniently attached to any backpack has available a snare to lock it and maybe a hairnet to support it further! In addition, the legs of the auction blocks are soft and easy to open, while remaining balances are lashed in the position taken! Certainly the last of the rods also being the one with a smaller thickness is not so strong to see but it still does its job very well. The handle with wheel to change position is really comfortable, with just hand you can adjust the photo machine in any direction, sure does not have much sensitivity (especially after that is very used) and it is therefore good to be careful when you unlock it, especially when you have installed on your reflex a very heavy goal! But if you are first safe standing tripod this is perfect! rnOcchio however, that herendo you try to aim the lens upwards the handle there will be much room for maneuver, and then you'll have to change length in the legs! rn
Cons:Doubts about the durability rotella..non suitable for heavy bodies + objectives and loss of stability in vertical use.
Opinion:It costs little and is comfortable to use. ideal for amateurs with light bodies, excellent blocking for video function, in the vertical use is not very stable. The wheel locks are not very reliable and accurate, but gains the simplicity of use. I have serious doubts about the duration, the structure is solid but the roller handle seems fragile. I'll see.
Pros:Lightweight and very practical, easy to carry and to open and close, suitable for APS-C or mirroless, quick release but ... (see below)
Cons:Not suitable for camera bodies that combined with optical exceed the 2kg weight, especially for those who would like to use it for vertical pictures, it tends to lower the framing because of the lack of the plate and of a very special coupling system
Opinion:A tripod very practical and convenient, but absolutely not suitable as soon as you use the camera bodies in combined with heavy optics, the room tends to drop slowly because of the weight, especially for those who love landscape photos in portrait or still life. In my view and for the use that I did, however is perfect for those who must shoot video because of its joystick "gun" style, but horizontally, so as to have a very good control and stability during shooting. For amateur use is perfect, especially for owners of APS-C, but with optical handyman as shown in the right spot of the Manfrotto, just adds a tele or any heavy optics is the case of going over on something more stable and performing.
Pros:Lightweight and comfortable compattornImpugnatura also for use with canvases pushed, can follow the subject with good practicality without using heads bilancierernPiastra quick release really fast
Cons:Not suitable for FF or bodies and heavy targets
Opinion:I used it with one hand holding the handle with which it is easy to capture everything using the thumb pressing on the wheel and the other wire of the shot getting a good management shake-kind avifauna.rnPurtroppo in the retention hooks lightweight plastic do not take more by lowering the gambe.rnSconsigliato for double exposures and heavy bodies, the better Use it on the road or in the mountains to the weight and ingombrornrnPs in the photograph does not have the same plate of my
Opinion:Good product strong and light, folded occupies very little and then practical to put in a backpack. I bought this stand without too many expectations, considering the price I thought it was a low entry-level, and I bought it just to start and experiment a little until he needed something more professional ... but I find a great stand versatile and precise in every situation ... the head is completely adjustable in all axes allows to satisfy every "whim" .. RNLA quality materials make it pleasant to the touch and also the design is nice .... So I'm really happy My purchase
Opinion:Easel defined entry level but not to anything to do with the latter in my opinion. Very well built, very competitive price, only flaw the last section of the legs at first glance seems fragile but in field trials has never given problems. The quality Manfrotto you see and feel all at the expense of other brands that offer inferior products at higher prices. Highly recommended for those on a budget but want to have the same in a high quality. Higher than the above, exceeds 170cm.
Pros:price stable and lightweight handle that makes it easy for any movement
Cons:I waited to say the contro..col time I saw that my legs are too thin for maximum aperture and in certain situations it is not the massimo..avendo above the handle a wheel to lock the camera in the desired direction after a while tends to lower and change the shot slowly ..
Opinion:having recently purchased an SLR after using a tripod poor found in a negozietto.ho decided to take this having watched price and size. is stable and good for the price ha..mi liked right now that just the handle with your thumb you can unlock the head for any movimento.è also equipped with a button for shooting video while maintaining stable what you want to shoot. .you said to be high but open all 1:55 I can not look through the viewfinder and are up almost 1.70 so I think there's some mistake. the only thing I've found is that the legs seem to be opening a game inside the other and they give me a feeling of instability as opposed to one that demonstrates dopo..e regarding the handle is impossible to raise the camera all the way to the sky for some shots at night because it's up against the rest of the tripod. For those who want something decent small and it is very heavy this is perfect ..
