          Comments about Slik Legs (3) for Professional II Tripod:

          This tripod is a real "sleeper" in the tripod industry. Everything about it shouts quality, and it competes well with European brands costing more. I keep the optional short column installed so I can go low without fooling around in the field. The tripod comes to eye level without raising the column, and I'm six feet tall, All movements are smooth and lock securely. VERY NICE!
