Default Re: Anyone has this tripod ??....

for a dslr set up seems v.tight allowances..
heavy body + lens + flash probably will hit around 2+kg.. add a ballhead into the equation, it might be unstable already..

just my $0.02..
maybe want to consider other brands / models ?

I do have this tripod. It's good for my D70 with kit lens, but once you load a 70-200 on it, it gets a little unstable. It's a good travelling tripod as it's light and short provided you are not gonna put any big lens on it.
