So not as lightweight as they seemed to portray. Also maybe a used one?
Just got this today and seems okay so far. Can't tell but it may be used and returned as the leg locks seem a but gritty and stiff when I turn them. However it seems sturdy. I took some photos on my Nikon 750 and 200 2.8 Sigma lens and it seems to hold the weight well with both landscape and portrait orientation. I will be using it in the next few weeks in possibly windy conditions (will use backpack on hook for added stability) and will update this review after that. They did give an extra arca Swiss style plate. I just wish it were a bit lighter as I thought a full carbon fiber one might have been lighter. The is not difficult to fold up, just remember to push down the orange clips and then push back and up towards the center column.The star off for the grittiness and slight stiffness felt in the leg conections while extending or contracting. Oh and the instructions are quite bad althou6you will probably get what they mean.
