I had tried a little light but enough to hold my foot costal nikon d200 and photograph me from time to time myself or steady the camera. This tripod has fulfilled these demands. In addition to its head can be removed and I exchanged against a head I had on hand with a quick coupler ... the feast. As against it is too light to stabilize my d200 with a goal to tamron 200-500mm. In all, I am very happy with this purchase.
