The fold-out foot provides sufficient stability while wearing the camera also completely without shaking. I have the screws tightened a little tighter on the ball joint, because as mentioned, I barely make videos with it. So the base holds a little harder and you can sometimes briefly taking your hands from the camera. All alone (for example, a self-portrait) I would the camera on the tripod but do not let (danger of tipping in light winds).
Excellent, the tripod is but on city breaks, where, museums often allowed to use any Tripods in churches. It is unobtrusive and also interferes with no other visitors.
The workmanship is typical Manfrotto 1a, the price / performance ratio! Full 5 stars for one of my favorite accessories.
