This is a great tripod for the money. It has a very sturdy construction and opens easily and quickly. It was my first tripod and I wanted one so that I could shoot night photography but i did not want to spend an excessive amount of money on one so i settled on this tripod. I was not disappointed it did everything i needed it to. Probably the only thing that i would have liked to have would have been a bubble level to keep my photos nice and straight, but you can always straighten them out in Photoshop so it really isn't that big of a deal. All in all it was a great tripod and I think that I will continue to buy from Sunpak whenever buying a tripod. And I will always buy from B&H for all my camera needs no other site beats there prices or costumer support.

Useful for taking pictures at night, for panoramas or for that "tack sharp" landscape picture you always wanted to have.
The quality of the product is medium (average). Good things about it are the price, stability and the fact that you have it "up and running" very quick. The bad ones are that it is kind of heavy and does not have that professional look and construction if you analize the joints and bindings.
Its low height doesn't make it very good for portraits of standing people because it limits your image composition since you can not take a picture at the eye level of the subject.
Other than that it does its job very good especially when you consider its low price.

      I have only used the tripod a couple of times but so far its worked great. It is sturdy, and easy to manage, its light weight and folds up really small.

              This tripod is great for portrait. It's very easy to use. It's not too big to carry around. But it's a little bit low.

                This Tripod is excellent. If you take good care of it (don't bend, dent legs) it will last a very long time. It also comes with an extra base-plate. The only dislike I have with this purchase is that the price of shipping was half the price of the item (???)

                        I actually got more than expected when I ordered this tripod. It's obviously not a pro-grade piece of equipment, but it's perfect for consumer-level shooting.
                        Everything works smoothly. It even came with an extra mounting plate; a nice handy surprise.

                                It´s a good stuff for the money, the relation price-money is NICE, good stability.
                                Awesome for begginers.

                                Very inexpensive tripod, so need to be realistic on expectations. Used it regularly on the beach for high, medium and low bird photos with Nikon 5000 and 300mm lens. Sturdy but a bit bulky to carry. Eventually head broke from use and weight of camera and lens. Given the price, can throw away and get another.

                                  For the money this Tripod is all most to good to be true, very well built, easy to use, firmly locks with a snap of the lock, vertical and horizontal controls are smooth working and lockable in position, it comes with 2 camera mounts for easy switching of cameras, Great product, I would tell a friend to buy it.

                                    This Tripod is WAY more than I expected, light, stable and very smooth working, good quality parts. I strongly suggest you consider this unit, for the price it's hard to beat.
