I wanted a sturdier tripod with smoother movement specifically for night sky photography. I am also on a tight budget. This tripod fits the bill so very happy with it. Feels very well made so far.
I’ve taken this tripod with me to Wales, Iceland and Madeira for shooting trips. It’s light enough for carrying on those long hikes up mountains and can easily go into my luggage at the airport.
It’s very stable, with lots of flexibility options when shooting. Even in Iceland when the wind was blowing me over, if I weighed this down with my camera bag I was still able to take some great long exposure shots of the Aurora lights.
Although this isn’t the lightest you can buy, without paying 300+ for carbon fibre I think this is amazing value for money and is light enough for most photographers. The ball head is great and if you want to make this set up perfect get yourself an L shaped mount and this is ideal. (I prefer this to the mount provided for the tripod)
I was looking for an upgrade to my Miranda tripod and this does everything I could wish for. So easy to use, folds down to a neat compact size and includes a well made carry bag. The price is very reasonable and it converts to a mono pod as well. Couldn’t ask for anything more.
Compact and light, but sturdy and stable enough to take a DSLR plus 18-400mm lens. Alos fits neatly into the side pocket of my camera bag. The carry bag supplied provides superb protection when transporting in the boot of my car. Would definitely recommend.
Sturdy,well built,well designed,compact , light and easy to use.
Translation of instructions to English quite entertaining but understandable, covered by the general disclaimer ” hope the majority of user understanding “
I purchased this tripod to replace an ageing Slik88 and it was well worth the money. It is both very well engineered and made. The pan control is very smooth and the offset bubble level is in just the right place. It even handles a Canon 100-400mm zoom lense without resorting to the tripod mount on the lense.
My only issues with the tripod are with the pan head locking and the quick-release screw head. When using the pan head you can easily end up unscrewing the head from the tripod unless the pan head is really tightly screwed on. The quick-release screw could be a little larger as it is quite fiddly to tighten in the field.
The case is a useful addition but the tripod is a little loose inside. The case could be ‘tighter’ to be a true travel bag.
Appearance is very good and quality seems high at this price point. The ball head has a very fluid smooth movement and panning is very nicely dampened. When all tightened up in position it seems very sturdy with no hint of a wobble.
Many adjustments to suit all shooting situations and light enough to carry up to my local mountains for some landscape shots ! A fraction of the price of some branded models but not far behind in quality at all.
So far so good !
This a a very sturdy and solid piece of photography equipment that I recommend to both professional and amateur photographers and to also include the monopod is a great addition would highly recommend.
Very neat to have a usable walking pole included, I used it up a Munro the day it arrived! Very well built and surprisingly stable, even with a big pair of celestial binoculars at height. Everything nicely machined, really good mechanism for the camera attachment. And a good quality bag you can actually use.
It’s a good size that extends to just under 6ft tail. Easy to carry and transport for hiking etc. Attached to my camera bag very well.
But expensive however we’ll see if it lasts. Taking it with me next week for a hiking weekend.
I am very happy with the product, it is sturdy and easy to use. The only thing missing is the quick release button, but other than that it is worth the money.
Ordered on the 13th delivered on the 15th. My son is very pleased with the tripod. It’s very flexible and holds the camera well. Received in good condition. The product photos are accurate. The price is right for the item. Good buy.
Everything about this tripod screams quality
Can’t find a single limitation, I have added a few aftermarket accessories to it and it has exceeded all my expectations. im able to mount a GoPro an iPhone and a DSLR camera at the same time! … A mic set a LED Light and two power bank battery’s … The tripod was sturdy and easy to adjust even with all that load.
If your in the market for a quality tripod at a very fair price then look no further … This is all you will want and need from a tripod, Not only does it look like a pro bit of kit, It handles like one too.
Very impressed
It would have been nice to have detachable feet but I guess you can’t have everything at this price point? The tripod has a very large height extension so unless you’re over 6′ 5″ you won’t have any problems using it. Lastly I really like the orange colour of the alloy components – it matches my Three Legged Thing Ellie L bracket perfectly! I honestly don’t think you can go wrong at this price – mine will certainly suit my needs until I can upgrade to a carbon TLT in the future.
