The Tripod ordered on 22.11.2014 and delivered exactly the expected delivery date. I was erhlich said more than surprised when I unpacked the tripod. Such value for a price of just over 50 euros is hardly imaginable. The tripod has no plastic parts, but it's all in metal design. The amount is for me fully extended almost too high, because I'm not overly large. However, this is not a defect but an observation. Everything is fixed, nothing can bend or is unstable. Most fangetan it gave me the pistol grip in this price range. In spanned camera lens and flash (about 2.2kg), the tripod does not stirrer and is completely stable. Two quick-release boards are also included and two Allen keys for the different fittings on the stand. Have checked the stand all screwed. There were all the screws tightened. I think this will stand me in good stead for a long time. Of course it is not a travel tripod, since the weight of the same more than 3.6 kg. I use this tripod mainly for interior shots and group photos and because it makes very good things, I can only recommend this tripod. Price, performance and design of this stand are simply top class.
