I was so sensitive by other reviews and took the Bilora Eco II unpack only with kid gloves. The tripod I had but thought of as lamp stand (see the set of my customer photo) and it is great (see photo customers). Tripods for my cameras from the small Digikam to analog medium format camera I've had enough. But I am also convinced that this tripod at this price very many other desktop or Behelfsstative surpasses that offered the consumer for Hemdtaschen- and other compact cameras. It has the support of the three legs; the column should and should not be unnecessarily high boost which enhances any wobble yes, and the stability against vibrations is increased further if you do not need the full extension height (this applies to any tripod, important eg at telephoto end); and it offers not only the vertical and horizontal tilt and panning around the third axis, which allows the above two pans also in portrait mode, and is even equipped with a removable disk camera, so that you save yourself the hassle of screwing the camera at every position change can. Owner harder or more expensive tripods (or both, as Gitzo) expect your tripod outlasted several generations of cameras, which is intended not to be expected with aluminum rods here with the full plastic construction. Nevertheless, five stars from me, as a tripod for those who want to do with a compact digital camera, the first steps to professional.
