Opinion:I was looking for a tripod to hook up to the backpack to ride, so something light and compact. I opted for this tripod and I never regretted the choice. Shot with 24/70 f2.8 and 70/200 f4 and the tripod never showed any signs of failure, even at maximum height with the 70/200 and light breeze, despite not using the ring on the lens. Also good the price, I paid 95 euros in the store.
Pros:Lightness and dimensions from closed, good build quality.
Cons:Arca head not fully compatible with this Standard. The head is exposed to bumps when brought hooked to the backpack.
Opinion:I took the small Element to use it with a Mirrorless and to have the maximum transportability. Fairly light is mostly very short when folded. The way it folds, with the head remaining at the bottom of the legs, exposes this to possible bumps if brought hooked to the backpack and left protruding. The Ark head goes well with the supplied plate, but, the head of the screw that greenhouse the sled is too protruding. Compatible plates or devices Arca of other brands may not be usable. It is the case of my Fuji X-E3 with Fuji Orignale Grip which already of its does from the Arca plate, it can not be used for the thickness of the screw. Pity about the Made in China
Opinion:Purchased during a trip to Amsterdam, it is used in conjunction with Olympus OM-D-M10 Mark III. Adequate to the weight and size of the kit, easy to carry, sufficiently stable even with light breeze and maximum height suitable for my needs. It fits perfectly in a hand baggage trolley, no problem with airport security. First positive impression, bought at €79 good value for money.
Pros:dimensions, lightness, stability, supplied ball head
Cons:for now nobody
Opinion:I already have a tripod, the Manfrotto 055XPROB with ball head MHXPRO-BHQ2 that has always given me great satisfaction with SLRs and heavy lenses. The need to have a smaller and lighter but stable support made me opt for the Manfrotto Element Piccolo. In combination with my mirrorless, they are excellent travel companions for daily walks in the city when they need "bubble" photos or in low light conditions. Easy to store in a classic school / work backpack, it comes with a practical, slightly padded case for carrying by hand or on the shoulder. Fully satisfied with the purchase I would repeat without batting an eyelid. Rating: 10
