Pro:
+ It is included a black bag. However, the Bilora-pocket feels high-quality and a little thicker.
+ The unfolding is quite fast.
+ It fulfills the purpose. If there is no strong wind, can be achieved with two tripods good results.
+ Spirit level on both tripods
+ Price
Con:
- Especially compared to the Bilora notice the really dirty processing. Levels are not really smooth, they have slight indentations or casting defects.
- Also one notices the use of very cheap plastic for the tripod head, unfortunately for both.
- (Greatest counterpoint) An axis was almost not to use with my tripod. This is about the hinge to adjust the camera in the portrait format (5 product photo, the joint left with the small screw). The screw had come loose, but the joint moved by force with which a precise adjustment is impossible. A photo-colleague said that especially this joint with cheap tripods are often jammed, so I accepted the deficit. There is still another way to move the camera to the upright position: the joint for the vertical movement, while turning the camera on the plate by 90 °.
Now, the Manfrotto Tripod has not the deficit. All three axes can move beautifully.
Conclusion:
Due to the clamping joint and the significantly poorer processing I prefer the Bilora Action Line Standard II-stand in front of the Polaroid.
