Sturdy - but Be Careful with the Center Post
Likes:
* Arca-swiss ballhead is removeable (it sits on a 3/8" stud)
* 70" height
* Reversible for low shots
* Carry case (although I probably won't use it)
* Metallic Orange trim color is nice
* Comes with one Arca-Swiss plate
* Packs down nicely to a low height
* Lightweight
Dislikes:
* Center post knob is very easy to cross-thread
* Center post o-ring dislodged from the top of the post within 30 minutes of first use
* Bubble level doesn't extend beyond the back of a mounted camera enough to be able to see it while a camera is mounted
The O-Ring issue has happened on other, similar tripods as well; I'm not sure what the manufacturers should do, but it shouldn't come out just by loosening the center post knob (top or bottom) and then tightening it again.
Other than that primary issue, I really liked this tripod. It was easy to tighten/loosen the ballhead and change the camera angle. The tripod feels sturdy and had no problems with my full-size DSLR and battery grip.
