A month ago I realized I needed a leveling center column for some of the work I'm doing. My existing tripod was a Gitzo GT2532, which I never had cause to complain about. However, the Feisol just blows it away. The legs are noticeably thicker, and the locks are much smoother. But most importantly the center platform is just massive. My RRS BH-40 looks puny on it. When I need absolute rock solid stability, I can pull out the center column and put in a flat plate, making the tripod a bare set of sticks. (Takes about 2 minutes to switch them.) But most of the time I use the leveling column. There's a twist under the center which unlocks it for changing the angle, and a twist above center which locks/unlocks it for vertical movement. It's a great design. And it just feels nice to use -- very solid and well built. Not to mention it came with a real tripod case.

Beats the pants off my Gitzo

Based on the outstanding FEISOL CT-3372,the lightest large size tripods ever produced, the FEISOL CT-3372LV Rapid Triopd incorporates all the CT-3372's superb features; in addition, it is equipped with a revolutionary leveling base center column.
The CT-3372LV is not only incredibly light and stabile, but also allows for lightning-quick angle adjustment. When no center column is needed, it can be replaced with a standard mount base, effecting even greater weight reduction.
