Light weight yet sturdy
When I first got the tripod I had my doubts about it handling a full size DSLR with a heavy lens. After several outings with it I am amazed at how well it performs. The ball head takes a bit of getting use to but now I love it. This tripod even when fully extended is a work horse. For those low to the ground macro shots it is super. The legs fold out and the main shaft screws into. Versatility is the key with this tripod! At just over 2 pounds it is a joy to carry with me on those mountain hikes to the falls or anywhere. My much heavier Manfrotto is collecting dust now because when I hit the outdoors with my camera I carry only my Silk Sprint Pro GM! ... Read more

A good light weight tripod for spotter or camera
I've been using this tripod with my 35mm cameras, medium format cameras (Hasselblads), ETX90 spotting scope and Orion Short Tube 80 refractor. The tripod performs well in most cases, and has a built in bubble level to help in leveling the tripod. The only shortcomings are that the pan head is difficult to adjust in small increments, so centering items in the telescopes are not as effortless as one would like. This tripod is a great platform for a 35mm camera or a medium format camera with shorter lenses. When I use my longest lenses (350mm & 500mm) on my Hasselblad, I have to take additional measures to insure that the tripod remains steady. Then again, these are probably beyond what this tripod was designed for. ... Read more

Like the MAXi347E, except pan head instead of ball
If you prefer the control of a pan head over a ball head, then this is a travel tripod to consider.With a camera and lens at the limit of its weight rating, the legs do wobble, but lightly resting a hand on it dampens movements. The relatively short 17.5 inch packed length may be important to some; for the added rigidity in the same or slightly less weight, I would prefer 3 section legs instead of 4 in exchange for 21-22 inch so packed length.
