I bought this item thinking it could be transformed into a monopod. I was wrong, but I was quite supprised by the quality. This is a great cheap tripod.

A very stable and strong tripod that hold DSLR with a heavy lens well while I was taking time lapse in Lake District high mountain area when the winds blowing and start snowing, but doesn't really affect just how stable it is, would recommend this for outdoor use, noted it's not a compact size, its lightweight but quite large.

I have not used it in the field yet but it is very impressive at the reduced price in the £50 range (I would not have been happy if I had paid £250+). This is ideal for my needs. I have set it up with my camera and telescopic lens and it is very stable although I feel I would want to add a weight to the hook provided if conditions were windy. I generally carry my camera and use it hand-held but wanted to have a lightweight tripod for hide and seated positions where holding a camera still for a longer period is tiring. The tripod was delivered two days after it was ordered (over the Easter break) and it was very well packed. There is a good carry bag included if required. The construction is very solid.

My first new tripod in over 25 years, appears to work well with a DSLR camera and zoom lens attached. The current load is about 3 kilos, and the tripod itself feels extremely light. Very easy to set up and easy to move the camera once it's set up....no issues so far.

Instruction manual has weird English. Doesn't reflect its original cost of GB250++. Which makes me doubt the value of the item. Now I came to know that this came from China. I bought items from China just because of the enormous discount. I found out later on that the quality is much lower than the discounted price.

Good quality. Even I meet some problem about losing parts during my trip. They send me a replacement and cleaning tools for free. Excellent service. 100% recommend
