This tripod has a glaring flaw
[ Posted: 2001-08-23 ]
This tripod has one glaring flaw...the center metal post screw mounts into an aluminum head screw hole. I used this tripod about five times before the head was completely stripped, and I never applied much pressure to the head mount. Very poor design of an otherwise nice tripod!
Velbon tripods are the BEST on the market.

This is a high-end Velbon tripod, but if you have a few extra dollars and take photography seriously, it might pay to get this one.
The height is great and overall body construction is EXTREMELY solid. Not rickety at all. The pan head pans smoothly and the legs lock easily and firmly. Invest wisely in this Velbon. :)
