I love using this tripod. It’s light weight for carrying. I sturdy and easily adjustable. I took photos on an uneven incline, I was able to adjust the legs, and the bubble level was an added benefit to make sure my camera was level. The pistol grip is a nice feature . I would recommend this tripod,

One of the best purchases I made adding to my photography gear! I like bulb photography and this tripod has really adjustable foot that can stand firm on rocky grounds

This is by the far the best tripod I have used. I am not a professional photographer, but an amatuer enthusiast and use it everywhere. It weighs in around 3.5lbs making it easy to transport and is very easy to maneuver. It feels to be very sturdy and we'll made with nice leg locks and a responsive pistol grip for adjusting the head unit. Very impressive tripod and we'll worth a consideration from others

So far, so good! Thus is my first tripod, so I don't have much to compare it to, but I like the pistol grip and it locks/stays in place well, so yes I would recommend this to anyone who just enjoys photography.

The tripod is very light and stable the ball head is a quirky thing but it gets the job done. The pan is smooth but has no handle (you grab the camera) It reaches a nice above eye level elevation (eye level for a 6 footer +) the bubble level on the head lets you level your camera regardless of the legs state of level. I recommend it and find it to exceed the utility of the other tripods I own.

Pretty decent tri-pod for the value. Was expecting it to be a bit more lighter, but its justified as its sturdy.

Love everything about this tripod, pistol grip is easily my favorite feature. Second favorite thing was the price! Can't beat it for ($) shipped. Also love the fact that it includes a level

Bought it after looking at several models. I have used it with my canon T6s with Tokina 11-20mm and it holds up pretty well. The features like different leg angles and inverting the center column are really helpful when taking macros.

Overall this is a great tripod for the price for my purposes. I use it mainly with a small camcorder to film product reviews for YouTube. The previous pistol grip tripod head I had used a trigger (pull the trigger to move - let go to lock in place). There were things I liked about the trigger, but this Vanguard pistol grip actually is better made. When the grip is unlocked, it's not completely loose. It is movable and moves smoothly which allows for decent panning shots, but it still has some grip/friction to it. When locked, it's super locked tight. I have not come close to pushing the weight limits, but it seems like a solid grip. The only thing I wish is that the legs had one more notch that kept them closer together. At the innermost current lock, if extended, they reach very far out which might not work will for shots in tight places. Overall, a great tripod for the price.
