That brand "Digiprod" is not very durable. Try spending a bit more to get a Slik tripod. The U6600 is only $36.

Agree. Get a Slik if you are on budget. You will be pleasantly surprised that its definitely much better. U6600/8000/9000 or the Splint Pro is definitely the best choices for budget tripods. Believe me!

A total newbie here. Is Slik tripod actually good enough for a G2? Coz i heard it is not meant for 'heavy' camera?

Thnx in advance for your help.

"heavy" means like those kind with bazooka lens?

Jokes aside, a Slik is good enough for G2

The plastic that holds the center column in place (between the center column and the screw) has worn out just after 2 months. That's why I'm having so many gripes about that tripod
