This was a little pricey for my first true tripod, but I'm of the opinion that you should buy quality products that last. I've only had it about two weeks, but my first impressions are that it is well built, light and stable. I put a Markins Q10 ballhead on it and am pretty impressed. Only reservation I have so far is that I am 6'0" tall and the shorter version was too short, but this one seems to be just about 2-3 inches too tall with the legs fully extended and the center column all the way down. I think I'll be pretty happy with it though.

One of the best tripods on the market. Rock solid. That's all you need to know. It's definitely worth the money.

I wanted rock solid suppoort and I got it. This tripod does it's job very well. The only reason I did'nt give it 5 stars is because of it's need to be dissasmbled and cleaned after beach use. Not difficult but a minor nuiscance.

After going through many bad experiences with wimpy tripods, I was lead to this one via an article on tripods. I bought it immediatly and never looked back. You buy a tripod to hold your camera STILL. This does just that. End of story.

After trying all the inexpensive light weight tripods every one thought I should have. I finally decided the heck with it and decided to end it foreevr. Now I will never have to buy another tripod. YEA!!!

Hey, its a Gitzo & it costs a bunch, you expect it to be the best. And it lives up to its reputation. Very light weight & sturdy. But the best thing about it is the ease of set up & the minimum effort that the leg locks take to looseN & tighten. I use it with a D300 w/ grip & 400mm f2.8 lens. No problem at all.
