Very satisfied for the price (21.99) light to carry even with the above reflex (Pentax kr + 18/55) contrary to that there 'written on another comment tripod is aluminum and not plastic except the reflex of the support and the clamping rings to release the expansion of pieds.Pas test again outside but should be fine for amateur use but in my opinion to avoid strong wind and then use the small hook in the middle of feet to weight with his backpack for example. BRIEF more than sastifait again seen its price. In so also carrying bag provided not too bad I expected worse but pleasantly surprised of its making (discrete and solid)
