3 out of 5 stars Tall Tripod quick assembly   July 27, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Liked the EZ set up and gives me the height I was looking for to produce quality video. Found a squeak during a horizontal/level turn with and without the video camera attached. Didn't see a way to reduce the squeak sound. Otherwise, this is a solid tripod and will work great for still photos.

Most tripods in this price range are much shorter. Most tripods that are this tall are significantly more expensive. However this tripod isn't a great value. It's just cheap.

This tripod is very light for its size, and while that might be an advantage if you plan on carrying it great distances, it's the result of the relatively thin-guaged legs. The sharp inner edges of the legs will painfully pinch your fingers if you try to use the carrying handle without somehow securing the legs in a folded position.

The height adjustment crank includes a plastic gear. Within weeks of purchasing this tripod, the gear jammed, and then stripped. With the top section unable to raise and lower, the advantage of the higher than normal height of this tripod was gone.

I really can't recommend this tripod to anyone. If this is in your price range, buy a shorter tripod instead. You can find some very good shorter models for this price. If you need a taller tripod, bite the bullet, and look at ones that are about twice the price of this one.

To sum it up, this tripod isn't a great value. It's just cheap.

The height is very nice but why does it woble so much even when it is not fully extended? I also did not like the way the leg clips are made. They are plastic and one has already broke off.

Haven't used it much but the panning is horrible. Not smooth at all, better take the the camara off the tripod with the quick release function which is nice.
