Very good tripod, solid, stable and not too heavy (1.3Kg on the scale, cover included).
Its handling is easy, fast and practical (presence of a handle, height adjustment by crank, clip locks on the telescopic legs, possibility to rotate the body between 0° (landscape) and 90° (portrait), etc).
The two bubble levels are a nice touch, and there is even a hook under the central column, so that the tripod can be fixed to the ground (with a rope and a tent peg, for example) for better wind resistance...
It remains to be seen how durable it will be in the long term (the clips are probably the most fragile part), but at this price, it will pay for itself very quickly!
