“Light and stable, love it!”

“After much searching for a light weight, cost effective tripod, I purchased two, one for my husband and myself. One of our favorite hobbies is photography. I have a Nikon D40X and he has a Nikon D80. Although a little shorter than we like, it is workable. For the size, they are extremely sturdy and stable. We used some of our larger lenses and did not have any problems with the tripods tipping or sagging. As a matter of fact, I used mine as a walking stick during a hike over steep and uneven surfaces, at times putting my full weight on the tripod. The legs did not slip or creep. Would not recommend this practice, but it is worth mentioning.”
