Top price and good compactness
First of all the tripod has a good base for me, it has clip locks. I don't use twist locks, I think they are more prone to dirt or sand in the thread.
It's a good size: it's not quite compact, in the normal working position, contracted, it is a bit large with a size of 55 cm on small backpacks. On the other hand, it reaches a working height of 1.38m even without the central column deployed, which is great. Tripod head is OK, Arca Swiss plates fit on it.
For practical use: When there is no wind, I can work with Fuji DSLMs without any problems, I could even use my Nikon D7500 here. This represents the maximum size in terms of weight, for large full frame cameras heavier tripods are required. I was even able to use a Fuji with a slight telephoto lens when there was no wind without the images being blurry. When there is little wind, I also use it to record videos.
The quality is very good for the price. Of course, I can't compare it with my heavy Manfrotto in terms of quality and durability, but it costs just under 300 euros even with a big ball head. And especially on longer hikes I don't feel like lugging the heavy tripod around. I am very satisfied with the tripod, I think the price / quality ratio is excellent.
