Not Meant for a DSLR Camera

This tripod is probably great for people who just want it for their cell phone, or a light point and shoot camera. However, I bought it to use with my Nikon DSLR 7500 and it does not handle the weight well at all (I'm not using a large lens with it either, just a 17-85mm zoom lens). It feels as though it could tumble over with the wind easily and the winding handle is not sturdy at all. It unwinds rapidly as soon as I take my hand off the handle, no matter what position I put it in. I started using my camera strap to wrap around it, after I got the camera positioned, just to try and prevent it from spinning and unwinding. Would not recommend to anyone who wants to use this with anything heavier than a small point and shoot camera.

Was on sale which made it a great buy. Might want something more rugged if you're a professional videographer/photographer.

This is a lighter tripod, but seems to be pretty steady. I like the pistol grip adjuster better than the straight bar.

This tripod works wonderfully for me! It allows much more movement than other previously used tripods and is far sturdier.

Great tripod if you want to have still photos. The ability to set the angle and forget is easy with the grip. The tripod is very stable and secure. The tripod does not work well for video. The lack of leverage causes the camera to move too far too fast.
