Review Summary

This tripod just makes sense, finally a tripod that doesn't require each leg to be individually adjusted at each joining point! The fast release for the legs being towards the head of the tripod saves so much time for setups, it's extremely light for the size of it and how tall it can go, and it is extremely stable. The fluid head feels great and is extremely easy to use right out of the box.

Such a game changer! This tripod makes setup so much easier all around. It's faster to setup, lighter to carry around, and most importantly it saves your back quite a bit of strain by having the hight adjustment leavers located at the top of the tripod legs. Thats not all though - the Ace XL head that comes with this kit is such a good head for the price! It actually handles way better than my Manfrotto 504 Head and its about half the size. The biggest difference being the counter balencing of the Ace XL and how conveniently placed all the function latches, buttons, and leavers are. The value perk of this kit though lies in the savings on the Ace XL head. You currently save about $320 on the Ace XL head when purchasing it in this kit. This Kit is currently listed at $1,938 for future reference.
