I bought this tripod for a European trip and I was extremely impressed with the quality for price point; the tripod is extremely light and compact. It fit easily in my carryon bag. I used it with a 5D mk2 & 24-105L lens, which worked extremely well.

Bought this as I wasnted something light for travel with my fujifilm x-e3. This fit the bill! I had a Mefoto that was a full pound heavier due to the aluminum construction and absolutely hated the twist-lock mechanism. The Manfrotto has flip locks which are quicker to set up and you know it's locked.

I like this tripod very much, it’s elegant and lightweight. I use 5D Mark iii + 24-70 f2.8 on it for most of the time and it holds it tightly with a little bit shaking. Anyway for a travel tripod this is definitely the best for the price and quality.

This tripod is surprisingly strong for its weight - which is surprising light. It makes trekking with a tripod a pleasure. Highly recommended

I like this tripod for its weight and strength. I also like the features it offers. It takes a little getting used to but that is always the case with any new equipment. I highly recommend this tripod.
