Ok

Not solid enough for me. I would rather have a heavy tripod that will not move

Almost a solid tripod

Almost a solid tripod. The build is strong but one of the tripod legs sticks out a couple cms further the the other two, messing up real specific hyperlapses. Tilting is also almost impossible when taking vertical images, something that's a lot easier with cheaper models from other brands. Would not recommend.

About Sunpak Pro 523PX

The Sunpak Pro 523PX Carbon Fiber Tripod with 3-Way Pan/Tilt Head is a lightweight, full size tripod that is designed for the serious amateur and working professional photographer. By using carbon fiber material for its leg construction, this tripod is about a third lighter then comparable conventional aluminum tripods. This tripod features three positions of leg spread for normal, semi-low and full-low angle shooting and the split rapid center column detaches appropriately to access the full range of height.

The leg materials are made of high-strength carbon fiber tubing commonly used in aerospace engineering, which yield exceptional stability for its weight. Carbon fiber materials are very shock and vibration absorbent, but still relatively lightweight.

Neoprene Leg Grips
The top sections of the legs come protected with neoprene non-slip foam covers, for better handling in extreme weather conditions.

Retractable Hook
The retractable hook can be used to add stability with a sand bag or equipment bag.
