    This is my first and best tripod so far! I love the design and simple features that allow you to extend the legs and mid section. One of the main reasons I bought it was because of all the positive reviews it had. It even comes with a bag and instructions. (Sunpak cares about their customers and went above and beyond with this one.) It so easy to use that its been a week and still haven’t touched the manual booklet for instructions. Sturdy enough to hold my T5 and 18-55 lens and the level of wind it can resist is off the charts. Also the feet are made out of rubber. I’ve had this stand on flat concrete and on uneven land. Never wiggled, wobbled, or fell.

    I bought the open box and it was missing a piece. I understand why it was over half off so I wasn’t upset about it. I ordered the original part that is was missing and it’s a great stand! I have a heavy camera and it works great. Very sturdy. It’s nice and I’m glad I made the purchase. The only reason why I’m giving it a 4 star instead of a 5 is because the missing piece. Would I buy it again? Absolutely would! Honestly, I recommend buying open box excellent condition because it saves you so much money.

    Good tripod, but if you can invest in a better one

    Pros: Has lasted me through many occasions, and highly recommend it if this is your budget. Holds my 8 lb camera lens and body with ease even leaning portrait direction. Packs up in a carry case. Cons: The legs (each part that screws) can come all the way out and this often happens (especially if someone is trying to help you) and there is a little plastic white ring on the inside to keep each part that screws in place, so when the pieces get all the way unscrewed these rings can fall out easy and break and over time more fall out (it still works without some of the rings, but is messy when shooting outdoors). If you need a tripod for speed, this is not the one as there are so many parts that unscrew and screw to change the height.

    I went into the BestBuy store at the last minute before my daughters wedding, as my tripod had gone missing! And as I scanned the available product, this one really stood out. And despite the fact that I really only needed the tripod for the day, I still ended up purchasing this one. Being able to compare the products side by side (Best Buy's reason for being!), for quality of construction, materials, fit and finish (I'm an engineer and designer), it was clear to me that this product was the real value! Despite the fact there there were many others on display, and some considerably cheaper, I really appreciate a well designed and made product, so I bought it! :-))) In use it turned out to be exactly what I thought it would be. It's easy to use, the ball joint stays where you put it, everything slides, rotates, and locks where it should! It's a REAL QUALITY product.... So much so in fact, that after using it, I don't care if I ever find my old one! :-))) I'm sure that it's not on par with some professional level models, but it certainly overlaps from high end amature use into the lower professional level products. You certainly won't be sorry if you buy it... I wasn't! Oh, and by the way, the wedding was fantastic! And due to the stability of this tripod (and a nice Canon camera also from BestBuy!), I took some really, really nice stills and video to send to all the guests... For memories to last a life time... Priceless! :-)) Hope this review helps! Brian

    Awesome tripod. Great Quality, stable lots of adjustments, QR ballhead. Compacts down nicely to fit in a backpack. Fits my camera backpack tripod holder without sticking up to high like Standard size tripods. Light weight for an aluminum tripod. I shopped around until scoring on this one. Great height adjustments for up high normal or for the down low micro or below eye level shots.. I use it with my FujiFilm X-E1 mirrorless camera. Comes with carring also.

    Great tripod for the money very sturdy and it goes with hook under it so you can have it weighted down in order to have it more stable during windy conditions. Had it for over 5 month no issues.

    Got as an open box special. Love it for the price I got. Was missing the mount and the telescoping legs can be a pain to open and close, but not a total deal breaker. I’m sure there’s better out there but I’m happy with it.

    Amazing. Noisy at high speeds, Quiet mode is ok. Record audio in post, if necessary. The app needs work, firmware update unspectacular. I like it for no real reason. It’s beautiful to look at. A excellent addition to my gadget collection. Great for time laps, with movement, vertically, and horizontally. I recommend experimenting with a strong tripod, in none Traditional ways, Be very observant, of the weight exchange, and limits. The cheaper version is not worth it. The case, and the accessories, make all the difference.

    This is a great tripod when you need flexibility in positioning your camera. I added an extender and it works perfectly with this tripod. I could not get the extender positioned correctly with my previous tripod so I am very happy that this one is so flexible.

    Good light weight tripod. It is very versatile in that you have many different settings for the legs and you can use it for shots that require use low to the ground. It is also sturdy.

    This tripod is very intuitive to use, folds compactly, and keeps a camera stable! In particular, I found that the grips on the legs are quite good, and so I can often just shift the legs around to get the framing I want when the height is close-enough. It's also extremely compact for something that has this range of heights. As for cons, I'd say it's not a quick set-up -- it takes time to adjust the telescoping legs, and in particular to get them about the same length unless extending all the way. Also very much a nit but I found that when tightening components on the poll it causes the camera view to drift up ever so slightly right before it locks in place -- this only really matters with zoomed lenses, but worth considering when framing your shot.

    I love this tripod so much! It was either the manfrotto or this. I chose this due to the cost and how small it can get when you fold it up. I have taken this everywhere! Its been used at Joshua Tree, photoshoots, parks, hikes, etc. This tripod is not only portable but extremely light!!! 2 things I must state that may change your mind on this. 1) There is no "handle" to turn the mount when taking panning. There is a small knob but a handle (in my opinion) would have been better. 2) The shoulder strap for the case should be better. Mine ripped from the constant usage.
