The good is unfortunately all nothing, because the tripod suffers from a truly hair-raising design flaw that - makes the whole tripod basically useless - the weakest link in the chain. The camera plate is so primitive fastened with rivets on the center column that the entire assembly (camera, lens, if necessary accessory) no longer sits stably. Over time (in my case it was only a few days normal use) loosens obviously the connection between the plate and the center column if they ever really determined because. For photographers this might be kept quite tolerable, while filming it's a knock-out criterion.
It's really a shame that an otherwise really good tripod through an unforgivable sloppiness and is ruined "on-the-penny-look". You just would rather the rivets tapping screws etc. used it were not for the problem. Much worse, Cullmann is with me now on the "blacklist". If this kind of workmanship, the "top models" of the company is characterized, then I want to see the cheaper models do not even prefer.
