Definitely compact sized, and will be much easier to transport around. The height is also excellent

Great product. I have been going through cheap Amazon / Walmart quality tripods for a while. I probably went through 3-4 before I decided to invest in a decent one. Pros: - No part of it feels fragile - The Camera mounting system is easy to use once set up - The ball pivot portion works great - Easy to get the hang of Cons: - Tilting camera vertical is kind of a pain b/c you have to spin the ball pivot to the correct position first - Having 5 sections to unlock expland/close can be a pain in the cold weather

I love the ease of use of this tripod. I use it with my Fuji?s. The best part is the thread on quick release knob. It is well constructed. The only down side is if you have heavy glass it makes the mount head sip a bit.

The tripod was exactly what I was looking for. Compact, light and perfect for my DSLR with a medium size lens for easy transport and quick to setup and unpack.

A good tripod for what the price is, but even with "only" a 3lb camera attached it becomes almost jello when fully extended. Great for: GoPros, Mics, Lights, Compact Cameras, Bridge Cameras, Cellphones. Bad for: Mirrorless and DSLR cameras. You can see my full review and opinions here: https://youtu.be/vxah5c-oIYs

Very secure even at its highest extension! Not to bulky either.

This tripod is great for photographers like me who are just starting to build a kit. It could use a level bubble, but it's weight, size, and adaptability is wonderful. Pros: size, weight, strength. Included case is nice and portable. Cons: Only comes with one quick release.

This is my first tripod, and I found it perfect for my camera (sony a6000) I consider myself demanding on the material and how it looks the things I buy, and this article is very well finished. the screw to quick realese It is very practical As a point of improvement, the tripod does not have a hook to hold some weight for stability when there is wind

Like all Manfrotto products: Quality is something that you can see right away with these great products. Manfrotto goes the extra mile to offer us great friendly user devices.

Light, compact, and functional. This tripod features everything you'd expect for the price point and exceeds expectation. It will properly hold a DSLR with a smaller lens - don't expect it to support the weight of a 70-200 f2.8 ii- no problem and the pistol style grip makes lining up your shot a breeze.

I am a beginning photographer, and wanted a tripod to be able to take self-portraits with friends and family, nature/birding photos, and night photography. This tripod is great for what I need. It's very light weight and easy to set up and take down; sturdy, even at its highest extension; and super easy to use. I highly recommend it, especially at the great price I was able to get from Adorama!

this is my first ball head, and on my budget it will do. I have tried some others, and they had much smoother action. But for the price, I love this tripod. It will be perfect for me, for now

This tripod is fairly compact and fits outside my backpack camera bag quite well. The pistol grip head turns smoothly and locks in place firmly. The camera is nice and secured on the mounting piece when attached.

Definitely sturdier than the cheap garbage ones. Toss a drop of WD-40 on the ball head to loosen it up a little.

This is a great little tripod for a backup or second camera recording. the legs are weak and light so it might fall over at full height and a heavy camera rig. I recommend it for a goPro or other light camera setup to timelapse or low angle capture some action.

My 1st shoot using this tripod was with a D5500 and Rokinon 14mm 2.8. Shortly after starting I was hit with 10 – 15 mph gusts, it handled it like a champ!

This is my first tripod and for the money it is a great starter tripod! I use it on my Canon T5i and it is easy to use and adjust. NO complaints!

Just a pice of plastic very badly designed. I've seen the same for a fraction of the price with Slik brand. I'll have to get rid of it. But none will be willing to pay 100 for this. I'll have to move to Vanguard or something else.

I use this tripod whenever I go travelling. So far, I've used it in Hong Kong, Singapore, Macau, South Korea, the Grand Canyon, Portland, and more. Overall I am not disappointed. One of the great things is the relatively light weight of this tripod, and is extremely sturdy despite strong winds. The only downside I could say is the strap that comes in a bag is uncomfortable and can cause skin rashes on the shoulder.
