I love using my new tripod on the go! It is sturdy enough for my landscape photography and also while using a slow shutter speed on other categories. Without a doubt I highly recommend this tripod for durability and great pictures!

Great ball head

Compact and easy to use. Knobs are easy to grab and tighten or loosen. Smooth action. Friction adjuster is a nice touch allowing for micro friction adjustments to allow adjustments.
