Overall well made and loaded with lots of features and extras. Great for lightweight cameras and binoculars.

This tripod is actually very lightweight and comes with a carrying case. I can easily see myself taking it with me when hiking. Although it is lightweight, it seems well built and is sturdy enough to support my 2.5 lb Nikon P950 camera. There is no quick release plate for the camera, but it does have a standard 1/4" threaded mount to screw into the bottom of the camera. For camera phones, the head has a flip-up, spring-loaded mount that holds your phone securely in place. Additionally, there is a small Bluetooth remote that can be paired with your phone's camera to provide a remote shutter release function. It looks like it should work with both IOS and Android devices. I had no issues getting it to pair and work with my Samsung S22 phone's built-in camera app.

This is my first "higher end" tripod. It is amazing. It's super intuitive to use and folds up small enough to fit in my lightweight hiking backpack. It feels like it's good quality and will punch (not recommended of course). I am really impressed!

Great little scope. Better to have than binoculars. Lightweight easy to carry and use and then put away to be on the move again. A must have for hunts.

was looking for a lightweight tripod for my backpack to use with binoculars or spotting scopes. Carbon fiber tripods ranged in price from $300 that I found until I came across this one. While not as light as some others, the quality is very good and it comes with a cradle that also holds a cell phone. Great Value!

bought the night vision binoculars for my son, he really enjoys camping and hiking with it and spotting all the animals. Seems to work great, arrived well packaged. The buttons seem a little stiff, but he's still getting used to how it all works. I'm glad I bought it.

Best Tripod out there.
