Richrd, Redditch, Worcs

+ The item was well designed ergonomically and had a 'professional' look to it. Its compact size enables it to be carried attached to a medium sized camera bag without any carrying or use difficulty. Overall, a very good product for the price

- The locking clips on each tubular section were quite stiff at first, but have become slightly less so with use. An instruction leaflet explaining how to unlock the tilt head would also have been useful

Simon, Tiverton

+ Very good value for money.
I use mine for shooting rally events. It's perfect. Light weight and easy to carry also use as walking stick in the woods.

- The head isn't strong enough at times. With a big lens you have to tighten as much as you can, otherwise it has a habit of dropping forwards; which can be slightly annoying, especially when shooting cars at high speeds.
Apart from this, it's great!!!

Anonymous verified purchaser , “Not easily pleased!”

+ Light and easy to use. Uncomplicated. Quite robust.

- Locking clamp rather flimsy. It is a shame that the head does not unscrew.

Gareth, Belfast

+ small ,light, easy to use, relatively robust , ( 10 yr old uses it as a walking stick) very good value for money

- head feels a bit cheap, having said that i use a manfrotto 460mg on my tripod....so not really fair to compare the 2.
