This tripod is very well made, with quality materials. I am very impressed with the light weight and ease of use. The arca-swiss head was definitely an influence on my purchasing decision; and for the size of the tripod, is more than adequate. I feel the stability, which is the main reason for using a tripod, is excellent.If you're looking for a lightweight and sturdy mini tripod - you won't go far wrong with this one!

It’s a great little tripod if you have a small camera, I bought it to help with macro photography and the Nikon Z8 with the 105mm macro lens is too heavy for it, it can be used but you have to get the positioning correct which can be a pain. Very light and compact though and simple to set up.

We all want PD Carbon fibre tripods but come on… when you’re getting going who’s gonna drop £250+. This is a great alternative, fits in my Wandrd 31 side pocket and lashes down tight to the side of the bag. Also took it in a medium checked bag on a content creation trip to Canada recently. The only down side would be that it’s not overly tall, so if you’re shooting human subjects stood up / walking around you’ll need to be shooting wide and/or find an elevated position. For the money a great buy.

Highly recommended

I bought this in conjunction with the AM-254 and SL-200 to make a complete flexible setup. However I also wanted this tiny tripod to take hiking to allow me to set the camera up off the ground, for longer exposure or timelapse style shots. It's super light and fits easily into a rucksack or outside pocket. The tripod comes with a nice roomy drawstring style bag that I can also fit the SL-200 into for more options. I have nothing to compare this with but I'm more than happy with the tripod and supplied ball head.

I like to travel and have up until now been unable to find anything I would truly call a travel tripod.I have other tripods and there are full extension lightweight tripods out there but nothing that I've found that is as compact, sturdy and well made as this one. I knew as soon as I had it out of the box that this was what I'd wanted. As well as travel it will be used for macro and table top photography. This will easily fit into a rucksack or cabin bag or shoulder bag. The build quality and sturdiness is superb and every bit as good as some much pricier tripods. I'm now looking to buy the additional centre column which will make my other travel tripod obsolete. Excellent product!
