    A little flimsily but works great for one shots. Not sure how it will work with SLR's.

    The top that has the screw you use to fasten the camera to it became loose after owning it for just a few months. Its decently stable but nothing amazing. The price point was one of the things that sold me on it, but there is probably something better out there.
