It is sturdy, lightweight and small enough that it doesn't take up much space! I am a semi professional photographer and this tripod is equally as good as some tripod's 3 times this price. It fits perfectly in my backpack and setting it up takes seconds. I definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a tripod, whether they are hobbyist or professionals.

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.

This was ordered for a gift will rate after it is given

All is great with exception to the description of monopod. The description states : "【Detachable Monopod】 It can be turned into a lightweight monopod or walking stick alone to make your photography more diverse. " To go along with this, the picture of the product shows the Monopod, Tripod folded, and Tripod open. The picture is deceiving as it shows the monopod alone along side the fully attached tripod. The description does not state that one of the tripod legs is to be removed to make the monopod. By seeing the pictures and reading the description, I thought the center column would be removed and used as the monopod. Thereby being a quicker change from Tripod to Monopod back to Tripod when needed.

This tripod is quick and easy to set up. It can be adjusted very flexibly up to approx. 171 cm. The individual legs can also be perfectly adjusted to surfaces of different heights. The monopod can be extended up to 180cm. There is also a small spirit level on the ball head so you can immediately see if the tripod is straight. Since it is made of aluminum, it gives a stable and high-quality impression. As shown in the photo, the camera can also be mounted from below (upside down) for close-up shots. A handy pouch is included for transport. I can definitely recommend the product because it is very stable and also looks great. It is perfect for all amateur photographers.

This is the first tripod I've bought in a loooooooong time. Most of my shots these days comes from a smartphone that's being handheld so I was really looking forward to buying this for my XT4. All and all this is an amazing tripod for the price and there isn't a whole lot more you could reasonably ask for it.Pros- This thing is feature rich. It has a gear hook, monopod, and the ball head assembly is entirely removable which really helps distribute the weight of the thing when it's hanging off the side of a bag.- Smooth actuation. Sometimes the locks get in the way of breaking it down but I'm actually listing this as a pro. If you actuate the legs to their furthest position at each stop then try to push them any further the locks will really get in the way. This means that if your leg is going to give way on terrain it's going to stop pretty easy.- Plenty tall when you extend the center column. I'm 6' and I can bring my camera to eye level easily.Cons- This thing is not light. It's on par for other aluminum tripods but if you're really looking to drop your weight look into carbon fiber.- The monopod leg is SLIGHTLY shorter than the rest of the other legs. This isn't too big of a problem if you take some time to balance the other two legs. It's also not a problem if you're shooting landscape and wildlife and you're already going to have an uneven distribution between the legs.Missing/Neutral- No threads to put feet or screws on the bottom of the mount. Not a problem for me but do be advised that if you're shooting on sand or water and you want feet it could be an issue. Not sure why you'd buy this tripod for that purpose at this price point anyway.

The quality, design and affordability of this product can't be beat. Bought it because im in the process of starting a company and I needed a tripod. This thing is incredibly sturdy and versatile with a really good design. Comes with a little travel case as well. Very compact once packed up. If youre debating whether or not to get it, just click the checkout button, you won't be dissapointed.

Easy to use, fast in, fast out of my truck. I use it for huge binoculars, and I feel safe to use it. IF you chose a Tri-Pod, this one is A1. Make sure you chose the right one, there is different versions of tripod, some have side extension, (which I didn't need ) offset arms, and others. THIS brand is TOP quality, TOP features, ("single arm feature"). I just love it. Make you explore all the features, for the instructions are not the best. I discovered that the "main" screw can be inverted for another "screw treads". which is awesome for different screw mount. It well/strongly built. We are far far away from those old silver classic tripod. "A NEW generation" I'd say.
VERY good buy, looking for a second one, for a different use.... will chose this brand for sure.
EXTREMLY satisfied.

The tripod legs might be able to hold 22lbs but the ball head wont hold 1/4 of that weight.Just trying to tighten the ball head to hold my 70-300 on my 90D which is light enough that it doesn't come with a shoe collar of its own was enough to cause the ball head lock nob to strip.This probably could have been avoided if the tightening nob used a 6 point hex socket instead of the 12 hex socket so it would have more surface area to grab the 6 point hex nut that actually does the tightening.

The tripod comes in an extra box. In addition, the tripod is stored in the carrying bag. An Allen key and a small manual are also included in the bag. The tripod can be transported easily and safely in the supplied bag. The bag also has a handle.

The tripod is well made and still lightweight. Everything looks very valuable and not fragile.
The tripod legs can be easily extended and locked in length thanks to the rubberized rings on the legs, which can be locked by turning. There are 4 extensions per leg, which can be adjusted individually. This makes it possible to find a safe position on almost any surface. The angle of the legs is freely selectable and can be determined at 2 levels, I took a picture of it, you can actually see it pretty well.
It is also possible to align the legs so that the ball head of the camera is upside down so that you can take close pictures on the ground.

The actual ball joint makes a stable impression. It can be easily attached and released and can be adjusted to any imaginable angle and position.
The camera itself is mounted on a quick release plate. In this there is a screw at the bottom and also a bracket so that the camera can be attached to it without tools.

A foot can be removed and the ball joint screwed on. Then you only have a stand and no freestanding tripod.

My conclusion... a light and stable tripod with a good price-performance ratio.
