Amazingly compact, light and sturdy!!!

I love the fact that it is so compact and light. I can strap it to my bag, and unfold it quickly. The main pipe can be flipped so the camera is inverted hanging centimeters off of the ground. Great stability for night photography as well.

Real Magic!

What is also noteworthy, is that the Magic 2 Tripod fits perfectly in a side pouch on a Cullman Expedition Backpack, or due to a flat packing it could be straped on with a velcro band to the most other photo bags. And, the middle shaft can be mounted "up side down", with the head mount pindting downwards, so that the camera can get very low near the ground, for close up macro or for book reproductions.

Great tool

A bit expensive for a casual user, I enjoyed using it as both a tripod and monopod. I'm still learning how to effectively use a monopod for sports photography, but since this tripod is relatively lightweight and easy to use, I don't mind carrying it along. I actually use a small backpack for my camera, so I loop one of the legs through the strap for easy carrying.

Nice shape

Looks like a good tripod, even if it's not very stable. I wanted this one for his particular shape and because it was only 2.5 lbs, but it's a small error, in fact his weight is 3.2 lbs. The head works good for the price of it, but I'm not sure if the plastic clasp to take off the camera will last for long... They say that the minimum height is 13", but as show the picture, you can put you camera upside down on the other side to be even lower! I really love the fact that it's only 13 3/4" folded (very usefull while travelling) but I'll will look for another one because of the weight. (sorry for my english!)

Light and right for me

I travel back and forth from Ohio to Alaska at least once a year to be with my son and his family. My Cullman tripod fits my carryon luguage, never causing a security problem. Its the first thing out of my bag to steady close-ups of Alaska's beautiful Forget-me-nots when I arrive and it the last thing back into the bag after taking a time-released family group picture before I leave for home...to make sure I do not forget my loved ones on the 49th State.

not sturdy enough for my d200.

I like the light weight monfrotto better-easier set up- just as light but sturdier. Although the cullman folds up smaller in length.

Small is good

I use this as a alternative in the field for wildlife since it is easy and light weight but sturdy enough for most shots.

Known as the most compact, full height tripod available today, the MAGIC 2 & the VIDEO MAGIC are tripods which photographers and video enthusiasts alike can take with them wherever they go, due to it's compact size. When folded flat, the magic measures a mere 13 3/4 inches high x 1.5 inches thick! and can fit into the bottom pocket of many camera bags. Assembled in no time at all, it provides remarkable stability, even when fully extended. MAGIC 2 and VIDEO MAGIC can also be converted into full height Monopods....simply unscrew one of the legs and join it up to the removable center column. their unique one-twist mechanism allows the tripod legs to lock at one quick turn of the topmost leg portion....another Cullmann exclusive. The entire tripod is anodized in a cobalt matte finish for reflection free photos. Of ctheirse, both the MAGIC 2 and the VIDEO MAGIC come equipped with a removable ballhead. ( Quick Release & plate included w/ Photo version) Weight is only 2.5 lbs.
