For the price, this is TOP!

I see a lot of criticism on tripods, but they proved better bill than most "Chinese" I had (of course except those brand).
The flaps require a little tinkering to keep well (I think including insert a small rubber band in the fittings.
A mandarin arrived slightly dented (transport). And I think that in terms of inner mechanics, there are things to see.

Having said all works! Unable to get the price of what you can get elsewhere herein, a compliant CAD product, a dimmer (even the most expensive products are not equipped), a good bag, all adapters, all he must.

All is not robust, but it is not fragile either. I would be very careful anyway to increase its life time, but for the price, it's great! And indeed, for the price, I would have no remorse to tinker with, improve, customize, and basically, appropriating me! (Something that is not done with an Arri HMI!)
