Bought 2 of these for use as 2nd & 3rd setups in a multi camera content creation studio shooting podcasts and vertical format shorts and they have been great. They adjust quickly and easily to make short work of any changes needed to be made WHILE shooting. The build quality is solid and the stability is great with secure clamps and locks. Simple features like the weight hook and mono-pod conversion are added bonuses that really add to the value of what was already a great tri-pod.

Solid as a rock and a great budget tripod to throw in the back of the car. Can be a little bit of a pain when finessing a frame, but better than most I've tried at this price.
