    Easy to adjust and balance, and the fitment is excellent. A bit heavier than I anticipated, but I guess that is actually a good thing for being sturdy.

    It's kind of flimsy.

    Ok, so, the best thing about this is that you get the visuals of using a sweet Manfrotto tripod. The "special adapter for higher-specification photography equipment" is literally a phone mount. Nice touch, way too far out-of-line to actually call a phone holder that, though. This tripod is great for light cameras, but when I tried to use it with a 4X5 film camera, it was basically wiggle city.
