Dolica ZX600B103 60" Carbon Fiber Tripod Kit with Ball Head and Professional Pistol Grip Head

I have had two of these shipped to me; both have had the horizontal leveling head fluid missing when they arrived. Adorama has replaced one and I am going to try a third (and last) time, but it shows that Dolica has a problem with this. I should also note that I have an aluminum Dolica pro series tripod that I took on a 1-week trip and the fluid leaked out during the trip. Dolica - please fix this problem. Adorama - thanks for letting me return these items.

My Dolica tripod has already taken a beating from its regular use and it remains as reliable as it was out of the box. Light weight enough to carry with you on the trail, yet sturdy enough to hold a Canon 80D with a sizeable lens. For the rally big lenses a gimble attaches very easily and the tripod holds it all as steady as a rock.

I like the tripod a lot. It's compact, lightweight, and moves and extends smoothly and easily. The pistol grip, while functional, is quite large and heavy and seems to be a miss-match for the tripod. I already have a nice, compact and very smooth Sunpak pistol grip however, that I'm very happy with and that works great with this tripod. The bag is nice too and I can fit the tripod, and monopod (with the Sunpak pistol grip attached) into it.

Lightweight and has a nice removable mount for the camera. Pistol grip is very solid and seems to be well made. Only very slight drawback is that the pistol grip doesn't fit in the tripod bag and will need to go in a camera bag instead. This is my third tripod and hopefully will last a long time

I use this product as a travel tripod. It is lightweight and quick to set up. It can't take a lot of weight but it serves my purpose

this tripod is perfect for travel, the regular ball head is great and the pistol grip is also a nice option. its a great two for one deal.

A great tripod for the price and for carry. It's very light but seems study enough. Weight hook on bottom can increase stability (a nice feature). The extra pistol grip head is quite heavily built although I don't anticipate much use for my purposes. The twist leg locks did not work well at first but seem to be "breaking in". I would prefer a lever system for speed and convenience. A photographer with a heavy camera and lens might not find it adequate but it works well with my lighter SLR.

Very well put together package for a beginning photographer. It was a pleasant surprise for the price.

My wife had wanted a tripod for her Nikon D5200. After reading some positive reviews on this particular tripod, I decided to get this for her birthday. The tripod is light and folds down to be rather compact and comes with a carrying case. The Pistol Grip head is a nice bonus. Price for this tripod seemed very reasonable and we have been very happy with our purchase. I would definitely recommend this tripod to anyone looking to purchase a light, compact piece of equipment.

I purchased this tripod to capture long exposures of the night sky. I have also used it to take portraits and landscapes. It's easy to use, light weight. This tripod holds my Nikon D5100 and my longest heaviest Nikkor 300mm lens. The pistol grip is firm but can be adjusted. I have no complaints.

The tripod is well made and suits me perferct but, if you read the overview you see that it says "can hold up to 18 lbs when actualy the manual says 14lbs OVERVIEW: Other features of this pistol grip are triple bubble levels to make sure the camera is level horizontally or vertically. This pistol grip is constructed for the professional in mind with an operating loaded of 18lbs and makes it suitable for entry, mid, and pro level DSLRs. It has upgraded features such as extra-large quick release plate and heavy duty construction.

I am a wedding and portrait photographer. It is a great tripod for the price. The grip head is heavy but it is sturdy. The tripod came with a case but when you put the grip head on it doesn't fit in the case.

I am a professional Photographer and I always thought that bigger was better until I got this tripod. This thing is super compact and super light weight. It is literally strong as steel and suits my purpose very well. You will not go wrong with this tripod. Plus this was a great deal price wise.
