The pros and cons are already sufficiently described in this statement, I can confirm after several weeks of intensive use. The device is very stable and also provides enough Einstellspielraum for a full format camera (Nikon D600 with 24-70mm - Zoom), at longer focal lengths / lenses, it could become scarce. The bolt on the swivel arm must be well dressed, otherwise migrates one of the horizon slow down. The indexer is actually completely useless when delivered through the sticky lubrication here often mentioned, a cleaning I have not tried yet. The fact that the problem improves with frequent use, as described by a user, I can not confirm. This remains a serious manufacturing fault. I am so far but also coped well without this screening, the 360-degree scale on the swivel head is perfectly readable. The supplied aluminum case I did not like to lug. Here a lighter packaging would be desirable.
