I have gained this tripod because the 30 - has tripod but finally left the service from a department store after 6 years. And I have to really wonder why I all these years this plastic monster did to me! The Slik is by feel and functionality a piece of equipment that I do not want to put it down. At first I was a little skeptical because I wanted to buy myself the EZ with SH-707E head, about which I had only read good. In retrospect, I'm going to have glad resorted to 3-Way, since a significantly better Neigungsjustage is possible than with the SH-707E head with the panorama plates workaround and leg adjustment. The argument in the Rezenssion in front of me I can not understand, fitted with two handles, the tripod can be stowed easily in your pocket, but it can also be that has changed the bag. The adjustment lever can be slid in place so you get a long handle of the double-precision when shooting video panning allows. The abspreitzbaren legs are awesome, just like the reversible center column. This has opened up completely new possibilities for me he ind commercial product photography. The tripod head I glued with commercially available screw lock to pivot in the Panorama level even with fixed shift handle can without disengages the head.
Conclusion: If the Slik should ever give up the ghost, what with the excellent level of craftsmanship should probably be possible only by a fall in a ravine, I'll get me immediately a new one. The wind susceptibility in 1.80 m height to me is quite matter - then go tripod and photographer stop times into a crouch.
