My expectation was of course, that there must be compromise on stability and load capacity. We are talking about a travel tripod with only 36cm in length when it is pushed together and not even weighs one kg. That the great Cullmann is stable so there is no question.
An EOS 7D fits it, even with NEM 70-300 zoom lens up front no problem. The ball head is to do good and clamps the Canon with the long lens securely. Ever the head is wonderful - he gives a great impression and I had it out quickly, as far as I until the subject then sits during clamping "mouse over a" must. For the legs I was skeptical at first, since they are only made of plastic. Once locked fits the but and if that look a little shaky, then no one comes also at the airport to the idea that this tripod is very bad.
Clear, 1.10 meters in height is not the world, but usually ranges from. For taking pictures while sitting for me that is even an ideal height :).
Conclusion: clear 5 Stars. In the pack size and weight in my opinion, reach the optimum.
