Finest Economy Tripod I've Used
[ Posted: 2007-05-11 ]
Bought this to use at my workplace 5 years ago and it is still going strong. All of the parts are like new with little sign of wear. If anything, it works more smoothly now than when it was first being broken in. Used mainly for product photography and some outdoor work, it has not had an overly rough life, but constant use has not adversly effected it.
I would highly recommend this to anyone on a budget who does not want to sacrifice quality and durability. A good general purpose tripod in all respects. It does not have all of the bells and whistles of more costly alternatives, but it does not have their pricetag either. A smart buy if it's abilities match your needs. Now that I've seen it here at Amazon, I am considering getting another while they are still available.
