Bogen Neotec - good for general purpose
By RobertVerified Purchaser from Aurora, CO on 7/10/2008
Pros:
Folds Small, Unfolds Quickly
Cons:
Legs not that great, So-so stability
Best Uses:
Photography, Portraits
Describe Yourself:
Hobbyist/Enthusiast
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

The legs are not as helpful as the advertising would suggest. The legs are a little weak making these not as stable as some other more standard tripods. These are a good choice for compact carry or a back up. The biggest down side to this tripod is the extra cost for the novelty of design.

Greatest tripod I have ever used

Folds Small, Good Stability, Lightweight, Unfolds Quickly

Describe Yourself:
Hobbyist/Enthusiast, Professional
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I have been using this tripod, with a Kirk BH-1 ballhead, for past few months now and am completely satisfied with it. It takes seconds to set up and take down, the best leg locking system I have ever seen. I take it backpacking, hiking and even use it for portrait photography. I highly recommend this tripod.

Best tripod ever!
By azVerified Purchaser from USA on 5/8/2007
Pros:
Folds Small, Good Stability, Lightweight, Speed, Unfolds Quickly
Best Uses:
Long Exposures, Photography, Portraits, Stabilization
Describe Yourself:
Hobbyist/Enthusiast
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This tripod with the neotec leg system is the best tripod you could ever use for hiking. It is just what I was looking for. You literally just pull the legs out to whatever length you need and they lock there. To collapse them, you just push a button and push them in. SOOO nice! No levers, or twist locks to deal with. I will NEVER go back to the old way. I hope this tripod lasts forever.
