Great Tripod

So far I have used this tripod on two shoots and it has worked great, the video head functions as it should and has given me smooth pans.

Good, but I would also look at the 502 head with the 055 tripod

I purchased this ti supplement the Manfrotto 502 head with the 055 tripod I previously purchased from B&H. I like the fact this head doesn't have the fluid adjustments like the 502 so I can grab it and run. But I prefer the mounting plate on the 502 to the 500 as the thumb screw seems cheap. The tripods themselves are very similar with the 055 being slight taller. Stability is about the same. I unfortunately live in a major city that doesn't have camera shops where you can look at equipment. So I purchased this sight unseen. If I could for the ($) difference I might have gone with another 502/055 combo as I believe it is more substantial for the money.

Smooth, easy-to-use tripod. Quality, but heavy!

I admit I had to read through the quick user guide/instruction manual in order to figure out exactly how to smoothly use this tripod but once I did I'm glad I made the purchase. It isn't complicated and even though the quick release plate fits a bit oddly on my Canon 6D, it's a secure fit and I feel safe using this tripod for both video and photo. The only drawback I can see is it's heavier than I expected. But that trait in a tripod isn't always a negative!
