Best tripod at this price

Great tripod for the price. I use these for high school students to learn the basics with. They take a beating and keep on working. Smooth pans and zooms.

GREAT ITEM EVERYBODY NEED ONE

Great addition to anybody's gear bag. Not as light as a carbon fiber one would be ,but very well built and seems to be lighter weight than other tripods of like abilities. Have no trouble attaching EOS RP with 24-240 rf lense , easy to control and obaine shots desired.
