Was actually really begeister of the tripod, very inexpensive, was good, everything was perfect. Until then the fourth time the plastic part broke off use for opening and closing of the adjusting mechanism. Can it now using only up to a certain level, otherwise with the weight of my camera by itself "enters". (I hope that was understandable described) PS: I'm really not a gross man and also very careful with my things. For the price though I was not expecting much, but more than four times should keep it already. This can now also be bad luck, but I fear that these sites are generally very sensitive and vulnerable. And I'm going to check whether Duct Tape can save what yet;) but I believe that now is not the yellow egg for non-hobbyist is :)
