    Solid lightweight tripod and good stability. Adjusts easily and stays in place once set.

    I have been impressed with this tripod. It is very sturdy and the monopod is cleverly hidden inside. The monopod has a bonus feature of being able to mount the adjustable platform with handle. The monopod takes some getting used to when trying to lock it in place by twisting the pole.

    I have a 200-500 mm lens that I needed it for and the tripos is very sturdy when teh lens is attached. It can also be converted to a monopod so I dont have to buy a separate mono. Might be a tad heavu to carry long distances, but that's what my husband is for!

    This is to replace my older version of this exact tripod. The old one was heavier in the legs, which is important in the wind. I was a little disappointed that the new version is much lighter and the shoe is a little gimpy. I shoot mainly sports with this and really liked the heavier version better but my arm broke off from a large gust of wind. So this new version worries me but i hope it makes it.

    fairly solid construction but a bit bulky. The head is adequate to hold the camera firmly stationery. I'm 6' 4"" tall so I like the height. The monopod stages twist lock with friction kind of like an adjustable curtain rod. This can be awkward to lock and unlock. Considering the price, I am pleased with the purchase. Although, I am certain that as I get more into photography, I will need to upgrade.

    Great product and very easy to use. A lot of convenient features to help with angles and viewing positions. Great price for the value added features. . I have three tripods and this one is the best. I love the monopod detached feature for shake free shooting.

    This one has the middle portion that pulls out to become a monopod. Very handy when you don't want the weight of a full tripod. It's a little on the heavy side but I am enjoying it a a lot. It also has a handle attached that makes it easier to carry. The clips are sturdy as well so I don't see the legs getting loose anytime soon.

    It’s an okay system when using the tripod, but the monopod is subpar at best. My first use of the monopod, the foot cushion came off as it was just secured with glue. The sections have no durability the very last section closest to the ground could not be fully extended without it wobbling under my camera which is only 4 pounds. Now the tripod stood tall but with my street photography wasn’t really adequate for what I needed. Gave to my son who is a junior photographer as his first tripod so it still got out to good use but knowing what I know I wouldn’t purchase again I’d save up and get a better quality one.

    At the last minute I signed up for a local Photo Safari and it was emphasized by the instructor to bring a STURDY tripod and we were encouraged to purchase one for $200+ or rent one. Due to the time restraint, I desperately searched online for a sturdy tripod with store availability for pickup today.... at a price I could afford! Fortunately, my local Best Buy had this tripod and I received excellent customer service from the manager, Ron. He said he personally used this tripod and it worked well for him. I have the same testimony that this is a very sturdy tripod. The rubber tips on the legs kept the tripod sturdy on the ground and in the grass. During the photo safari, I had to carry my tripod over my shoulder with the legs fully extended and the quick release pan head kept my camera very secure. I would definitely recommend this product.
