Pros:Really low weight considering the capacity of 12Kg. Very versatile in positions as a tripod, as a monopod it offers 2 possibilities: with the additional center column and also with just the side "paw". The head with three levels and the two blocks for: 360° rotation and release of the ball. The head is always frictioned and does not have a risky unlock.
Cons:A criticism for the really poor supplied keys, I immediately get 2 better keys.
Opinion:As soon as it is removed from the box, it immediately gives an idea of stability and versatility. Lightweight shoulder case but seems adequate for use. The two neoprene grips are good, one by the way is part of the monopod. I think it can also be used with super-tele. Happy with the purchase I will make an update after the field test.
Pros:Robust, compact, versatile, excellent value for money.
Cons:For the category to which it belongs there are no glaring defects, if you want perfection in the movements, the fluidity of the closing knobs and the head supplied you have to go for much more expensive tripods.
Opinion:It is an excellent tripod, sturdy and well planted on the ground at all heights, with legs with a suitable section to withstand the weight of a reflex and ML FF or even an MF such as Fuji or Hasselblad. If anything, the controls could have more fluidity, the mechanism of release of the legs to close it, if these are tightened so as not to give way when closed and you grip it by only one, it becomes a bit hard to manage. Unscrewing a single leg becomes a monopod, turning the central column allows low shots from a macro position. Its closed dimensions, its maximum height with extended column and its low weight make it a universal tripod at an excellent quality/price ratio, especially if you take advantage of the various offers. P.S. I bought a padded transport bag of his size on Amazon with handle and shoulder strap very useful for when traveling.

Opinion:Excellent value for money, sufficiently high and robust. I use it in various situations and photographic genres, replacing its ball head with a tilting one on occasion and need, I must say without ever disappointing expectations. Appreciable is the possibility of being able to use it also as a mono foot through a very simple but effective shaft disassembly system, also excellent the possibility of mounting the Reflex in the lower part of the central column often helps me in macros. The overall dimensions when closed are not exactly the smallest but still acceptable, for transport I bought a strap that I attach to the ring supplied and everything is much simpler. The supplied ball head is of good quality, sufficiently smooth and well adjustable in its functions. An object that I would recommend without any doubt.
Pros:Very favorable price/performance ratio, maximum height, very high maximum capacity, reasonably compact as a travel tripod, ballast hook, monopod possibility
Cons:Short center column to buy separately, heavier and bulkier than super-light carbon travel tripods
Opinion:It's my first tripod, and I'm happy with it. Also used in windy places (not areas where the bora blows, but still decidedly windy) only rarely I felt the need for ballasting. As maximum load I put you a Panasonic G9 and the 100-400 Panasonic Leica (total about 1.8 kg), and I have never had problems. Dimensions when closed and weight (1.65 kg with the Rollei T2S ball head, included in the price) are not the most compact ever, but it is decidedly more robust than the superlight carbon tripods with a similar cost. Really winning price: found on offer at 145 euros, I had to order apart from the short central column on the Rollei website (15 euros), which for me was essential to do nature photography with greater comfort.
