This is a very good tripod. I have a Benro with fluid head for my Sigma 600m. But I needed a more versatile tripod for my landscape and macro photos and this is the best, easy to use, very good materials and you can use it in a lot of positions that helps you with the compositions.

Great tripod haven’t taken it into the field as of yet but it’s doing a great job holding the telescope at home for now. Might have to get another one for the camera as well. Comes with a carry bag which is really handy.

This is an insanely versatile tripod. It’s helped me experiment and get some great shots and angles I never would have attempted with a traditional tripod. It’s pretty beefy but not insanely heavy and comes with a really nice carry bag. The build quality is great, I would buy this tripod again. Honestly I might buy their new carbon fiber tripod!

The quick version - this tripod is amazing, get it home and look no further.
The long version - decided to purchase this as an upgrade to an older, lighter and less sturdier tripod that served me well for quite some time, but was rather wobbly in windy weather. The tripod came packaged nicely, so I expect no issues whatsoever with transit.
It comes with a nice carrying case that also features a shoulder strap if you're into this sort of stuff. Setting it up is quite easy and natural if you're into photography, but in case you feel unsure about something - it also features a user guide, which is fairly descriptive.
Once extended, the notable features can be easily spotted - nice build quality, smooth rotational head, padded grip on the side for carrying (no more cold hands..), side-extensible arm for some top-down shots (though expect to have to cut on the tripod itself in post as arm is not too long anyway), quite sturdy, fast lock-unlock of legs, leveler on the head..
Overall, I believe the tripod is well worth the money and looking at the build quality I expect it to last for quite some time. 5/5, would totally recommend.

Excellent quality...added carry bag is very useful as well.
Design is easy to use and VERY flexible for all those awkward shots!

Needed to get something more serious for photo and video use. This thing is versatile with a bunch of configuration options. It's well made and solid.

Once you’ve made the decision to move on past your first “$30” basic tripod there are sooooo many different choices / options - it can be hard to decide which one to choose from. This tripod is very light and portable and quick to set up, but most importantly, offers endless options for every imaginable shooting situation as far as angles / camera positions and what the tripod is standing on (even / un-even terrain, stairs, table tops etc) and is super good for low to the ground shots used in macro photography and some cinematic shots. Note: this is not a heavy, sturdy tripod which is what you’d want for study portrait/still/video work - if that’s what your after there are better options - this is a great on-the-go tripod option for your mobile photography needs.

My first experience with this type of tripod, and I am not disappointed. Feels as good as other bigger brands which cost much more. Thoroughly recommend it.
