So I use the tripod just as the second stand beside a XPROB 190th I use it on the road for a Nikon D7000, as a tripod for my flash when off-camera flash and rarely as a tripod for my P7000. For the price can not expect miracles. The tripod is the only product that I know of Manfrotto Made in China. So now to achieve its purpose: For a city trip I do not want my XPROB take 190 and I did not want to spend more than 100 again. The tripod is pretty easy and quite compact. I use the tripod as well as at the limit, as the D7000 weighs with BG and 18-105 or 12-24 nearly 1.5 kg. The ball head tilts when tighten to often when you let the camera go. This means that most of the images have to be cut even in retrospect. Very windy, it may also not be. For the flash, it is perfectly adequate. The P7000 is very easy, but again, must be well tightened, so that the camera does not move afterwards.
All in all a compromise between price and more effort when taking pictures. The quality is ok better than normal cheap tripods, but no comparison to nem XPROB 190th
Conclusion: as a travel tripod or Notstativ ok. For more money, of course you also get a better product.
