With longer exposure times, I really need when triggering no longer self-timer forward to avoid shocks (is surely with the tripod head).
The tripod height is more than adequate and there is a big one for me (183cm size)
Reserve (I can to extract the lowest element completely or at least partially renounce what the stability again benefit).
Easily the stand compared to extreme travel tripods is not sure, but for the use of travel I have not even bought. For the higher price (approximately 180-200) for carbon model might enable a good travel tripod itself.
In a test video was told that the force needed for the switching on or you Unfolding
could adjust the legs at the leg joint (Allen screw); in the user manual (you can also download in German) is available in this regard but nothing. I once gently tried to solve the socket screw; but she will not budge and I do not possible to round the key or the hexagon socket. Maybe someone has already experience with it.
As Einbein me, the height of the leg completely unscrewed from (especially with attached tripod head); you do not need additionally the center column.
The flexibility (repositioning of the center column, etc.) is good, but also have other, less expensive manufacturers.
In sum: The quality of tripod (and head) is excellent!
