Very good tripod for the priceAug 21, 2010 I purchased this tripod for my Nikon D3000. The tripod is very sturdy and easy to use. The camera mounting plate has an easy on/off installation. The 70" height is great as my husband (6' tall) and I (5' 6") can both use it with ease. It is very easy to adjust the height and the built in levelers are easy to use and read. I also purchased a remote for the camera and both the tripod and remote make the camera much more versatile to use. I read many, many reviews on different tripods and for this price this one suits my needs superbly. Would recommend this product to anyone looking for a sturdy, well-built, easy to use tripod.
Tremendous valueAug 19, 2010 I bought one of these recently for a film project, and I am extremely happy with my purchase. It is just a huge upgrade over the other tripods I own, and for the price I paid, I couldn't be happier. It is really big, really sturdy, and has some nice features like being able to quickly release the connector to the camera, and and handy level indicator bubble. It also comes with a surprisingly nice case. Sheesh, I would think the case alone is worth would I paid for the whole thing to be honest.
Sturdy for the priceJul 07, 2010 I wanted a tripod that i didn't have to bend over to look thru. It is a tall tripod, but NOT compact though. Made well for the price.
Great valueJun 17, 2010 Had this for 3 years. Only used it for light use and has held up beautifully. Best value for the money. It's not professional grade construction and the locking mechanism for the tilt angles sometimes lacks the friction needed to hold a DSLR in place when the tilt approaches 90 degrees. So I've had to anticipate the amount of sag, tighten it down in that position, peek thru the view finder, adjust, lather rinse repeat. That's the one star off the rating. Otherwise, a nice and tall tripod, lightweight, & and fairly well constructed...I haven't found a better value. Perfect for bringing along on outings.
It just works!May 25, 2010 For a new DSLR photographer, this is ideal. Costs 20% or less of a full fledged tripod and works pretty well in all situations. You just have to be a little careful about using it as the top parts are plastic. Weight/height wise, it is as good as any other. Very happy about the purchase.
