I've had mine for 34 years and just replaced the center column bushing (wobbling) with a piece of self stick velcro. Back in business for another 34 years.

I had one of these 35 years ago, as my backup to my Bogen Studio Pro, and lost it somehow , and decided to buy another , I did not need anything heavier as I no longer shoot 8x10 film , and am all digital now

I hike into remote area's for nature photography, and casual art modelling work, this is a fabulous tripod for the price , made well, and will hold any of my mirroless equipment, or my D7000, with 400mm lens and do just fine

I need to photograph some drawings and a photographer friend of mine recommended this one. For the price I did not expect the nylon case it came in. The tripod assembles easily and quickly, and it is quite sturdy but light.

I've purchased many of the top line tripods over the years - manfrotto ... you name it ... but I always end up going back to the Tiltall I used in college. It's stable (beyond a doubt), unfolds quickly (the twist rings blow away the snaps in speed and durability compared to what the other manufacturers use. I like it so much, that 25 years later I'm buying another one (not that this one has been giving me an iota of problems). It is even stable enough to hold my Sony FX 1 Video camera. Beat that ....

I bought my First Tiltall used in 1967, I'm still using it. It was 10 years old when I bought it. I own many for staff and students use. I've modified some for special use. This is the best bargain in photography equipment.

I purchased my Tilall in the early 70s. It was the best value for a professional quality tripod at the time and was recommended to me by a professional. The quality is hard to match. I put the tripod away for 15 years and now that I am getting back in nature and macro photography it is still hard to match.

My first unit was purchased 1970 for 4x5 and has passed the test of time. Still works perfectly. Excellent weight-stability ratio. Very light and extremely stable. Easy to use and rugged. Collapsed length longer than some but makes it more stable. Unbreakable. Have bought another for my son to use with pro digital because I know he will use it for decades to come.

For the price, I cannot find fault. Unit is machined, not stamped and operates smoothly. Other reviews state not to use it with heavy or large equipment. DUH! For my uses, this may be the only tripod I will ever own.

bought one in 1976, have been using it for 31 years, still working with it-- bought one [...] for my daughter to use. Maybe I'll give mine to a grandchild when the time comes. They work side by side with the studex.

This is my second Tiltall. My first was purchased in the early seventies and was stolen doing a recent move. The overall quality and design has changed very little, if any, over the years. There are no plastic parts to break and no "little crank" to get in the way. This tripod is a classic example of "Form Following Function". The Tiltall is no Twenty Dollar Amateur Tripod. It is built those who want and need the best. Period.

Tiltall tripods are mono tubular in design which offers great weight and volume savings for on the move crews. This is achieved without any compromise on torsional and vibration stability.
Tests prove they are superior to traditional video tripods. All tripods have independent leg angle adjustment so no need for spreaders and cover low to high level shots. All tripods have rubber / steel spike feet.
