Too bad, because the tripod makes a good impression otherwise, is light and has everything you need. But I had to send it back because the upper locking knob can not be tighten enough and thus the camera is horizontally stable. If you tilt it slightly forward or backward, it turns the same all the way up or down, because the knob is not tight enough to draw. Have tried it with a washer, but it did not help. Therefore, the stand for me is useless. Fixed a bug that was also already criticized by others .....
