Bought this for doing macro work or getting my camera up over railings with wide angle lenses. The tripod isn't that heavy duty but I knew this going into it, I truly wish a heavy duty carbon fiber version was produced with this unique and very useful design.

I am using this for more than an year and I love this one. Just not giving 5 star because of the weight. Its a little on heavier side for me!

it is firm and easy to use. works great with my Nikon dslr camera.

It's light and easy yo use especially for macro.

Love it! Great piece of equipment for the money!
