Pros:Light, perfectly stable up to 4kg, relatively low price given brand and materials, closed size, quick to open and close despite 5 sections, including precise head
Cons:Minimal head, has no control over the clutch; it's not always easy to tell if the head is well screwed
Opinion:I have this tripod for about 1 year, I used it to make landscapes without any problem with 5d mark IV and relatively light optics with the head supplied (rarely with 70-200 2.8 is II) and never disappointed me. The priority use I make of it is with the 5d and the Tamron 150-600 g2 with a 900g scale head, for a total of about 4kg. Even here I was never disappointed, the stability is really good, even to make shots with stabilizer disabled at 600mm. Once I tried to mount the 500/4.5, but with the 5d it was not possible to balance it except by mounting an additional bracket, which I did not have at the time. In this configuration (about 5kg) it was absolutely unstable, I'm pretty sure the problem was mainly balancing, but I never got to do other tests with a similar and well-balanced weight. For the use I make of it, I could not ask for better, especially at the amount paid out!

Pros:Light, stable, compact. Price not exaggerated.
Cons:the head unties a little too easily. Every now and then you have to tighten the leg brugole because "the movement at the opening and closing of the legs becomes a little slow, but nothing that compromises the stability".
Opinion:I've owned this stand for a year and a half that I use with a Nikon D500. I don't have mammoth goals. With normal goals I've never had any problems with the establishment. Very comfortable to carry around, but at the same time solid. On my last trip to Australia, I boarded it and survived without any problems. I'm really happy with the purchase.
