Reviews about this item

Review Summary

2021-04-08T09:16:18

Rated 4 out of 5

Slightly unsteady with center column out for macro but not a deal killer.

I already had the aluminum version and liked the removable column. This tripod is great but be warned that for precise and steady images, this tripod vibrates more than the aluminum just requires a bit more care to let the vibration settle. Also, there is no hook on the bottom of the center column for hanging a counter balance weight when using a heavy camera out at an angle for macro shots.
