    This tripod serves the function for a beginner. For a more advance photographer, a little tripod would be more desirable.

    Solid tripod, pain to break down.

    The tripod was part of a bundle that I couldn't turn down, but after opening it up and trying it out, it took me 10 minutes to break it back down to put away. Each leg breaks down into several collapsible pieces, which have individual pins holding them in place when expanded, but the pins are hard to press down and make it hard to collapse.

    Works great for taping sports events. The tripods can be set at different heights so you can use it in the bleachers.
