General Purpose Medium load Tripod

For a combination of price, function, and load this is the best tripod I have found. I use it for photography and astronomy. Rock solid within it weight limits. Perfect for any SLR and most 90mm short focal length telescope. Depending on the head you use it is great for both terrestrial and astronomical use.

Light weight but handles the load

There's some trade off. It's lighter than the other similar Bogan models but not as quick to set up. It's lighter weight is more important to me.
