Ok, for starters, packaging/transportation, all good.
This tripod can do so much, it's not too heavy, it stays well in place on the ground (even on rocks at the seaside with a super strong wind). I can turn it in all directions, put it upside down (handy for taking pictures close to the ground).
And then, I was hesitating to get a monopod for more mobility and speed to set up (especially for sudden photos, moments when you need to be reactive and fast). Well, this tripod can be transformed into a monopod, if you plan ahead.
And the small bag, certainly banal and flexible, still facilitates the transport.
