+ Good sturdy construction with a very conveniant handle,and a decent quick release.
-
Difficult to position the camara straight even with 2 spiret levels.after aligning the bubble in its central position the mechanism continues the movement you just made.
Maybe i just need practice :-)

+ compact, quick lock legs, carry handle, lightweight
- Pan and tilt head is terrible. Tilt head is miles out in its 90 deg position. Locking the tilt is quite difficult. The spirit levels are a total waste of time (far to slow, a fast bubble would be more effective)

+ The tripod is lightweight and easy to use - perfect for the job.
- none

+ It is a sturdy tripod and pretty stable.
- The head mechanism is cumbersome and clunky to use. It is difficult to get the right tilt angle even for a tripod of this price.
purchased 22 Aug 2007
+ A sturdy and compact model. Easy to carry round outside
- I was unable to turn a camera and take a picture vertically. The tilt was a few degrees off and that effected the picture. I may have been user error but the solution is not obvious.

+ I normally believe you get what you pay for but this is a really good value item that was much better. You can't go wrong by getting it!
- sorry, none!

good value for money
well designed
does what it should do
- feels a little to plastic to use but for the price it does a good job, and proformes better than a lot of others at a higher price
purchased 03 Aug 2007
+ easy to use and quite light
- no instructions in the box so there are a few parts of the tripod i have no idea what are used for which seems silly really. If someone has never used a tripod before, instructions are very helpful.

+ Lightweight but sturdy, the handgrip makes it very easy to hold and quickly release/secure legs at same time. Useful hook under centre extension which happens to hold my camera bag.
- Panning handle takes several turns to hold it in the right place. Spriit level seems almost useless - I find I'm quicker/more accurate at working out what is level (but I've always had a good eye for level/horizontals). When centre is extended it can't really take a heavy lens if mounted on the camera base (but should probably use lenses with tripod mount on the lens). However still much better than my original tripod - good value.

+ very easy to use and quick to set up and level using the in-built level.
- can be slightly unstable at maximum height
purchased 22 Mar 2007
+ Does what it says on the box ! Lightweight and folds down to a handy easy portable size
- tripod head when camera fitted and tilted for shots at 45 degrees longitudinally isn't a true 45 degrees thus unable to shoot at this angle
purchased 10 Dec 2007
+ Light in weight.
- "L" hunge will not lock at shalow angles.
purchased 23 Feb 2007
