This tripod people have thought in the design made the know what is important. The sentence says it all. Starting with the dimensions: tripod folded in his pocket (with pocket) 46cm long, fit in your backpack. Tripod extended at maximum height including head and plate (bottom camera) 1,58m. Means to me, "working height conjunction usable pack size". For possible instability is on the central tube is threaded for the supplied hook to overburdening. Everything makes a strong impression, and the diameter of the lower telescopic poles seem adequately dimensioned and attached. It continues the delivery: quality Ball Head with Panorama function carrying case with shoulder strap and compartment for small parts and belt attachment loop. It has to be bought extra pure nothing. The angle of the legs can be adjusted in three steps and one of the legs can be unscrewed and connected even be used as monopod with the center tube. For the alignment of the head are three Levels available. Operation is "suction" and leaves in every way a high-quality impression.
I have long wanted to quality / pack size / working height / haptics to find united in a reasonable price level as a traveler. The part is also much more expensive and top producers in the shade.
