So getting this thing back in its case was a nightmare. How it fit in there to begin with I don't know. In order to jam it in I had to take the top part of it off and there's now 2 pieces that I'm not certain I'll be able to screw on which is very annoying.

I have to say I am very impressed and delighted with this tripod - 79” one - it is very well made and the fact that it doubles up as a monopod which can be used as a walking stick is brilliant and the handle grip of the walking stik is plenty high enough and adjustable ( I’m 6ft!) And of course using the monopod as a walking stick means the remainder of the tripod is even lighter to carry plus you are ready to take your next photo/video at any time. With the camera mounted on the tripod and whilst using the monopod I can raise it above my head height whilst standing which is great for filming and photographing birds nesting and even squirrel families playing. Ps it also comes with a very nice well made carry case with shoulder strap. As I said before I am very impressed and delighted with this tripod/monopod and definitely recommend it.

Slightly heavier than expected, but well made and does everything I expected of it. The tripod is quick to set up and is ready to shoot within around 90 seconds, swinging it to underslung mode in a couple of minutes. well recommended

There isn't much to say about this product other than it is superb. The build quality and sturdiness of it are exceptional for the price. It is slightly heavy but as an amateur, I'm not bothered about it being light for the price. This is the third tripod I've had since getting my first camera and I have no doubt that this will last me my lifetime. Everything works exceptionally smooth, strong and stable. Just clicking the legs into place feels premium and the quick release really is quick release.5 out of 5 in every department for me.

In contrast with my old crappy plastic tripod this one is out of this world. Really like the sturdy feel and the design is neat and compact, which is very much appreciated. The fact that one leg (is that the right technical term?) can be used for handheld moments and awkward positions is fabulous. The little gadgets are also great and all-in-all help to make this a worthy tripod and not as expensive as people might think. Arrived empeccably by Amazon Prime as always.
