    Comments about Miller SOLO DV Carbon Fiber 2-Stage Tripod Legs (75mm Bowl):

    If you are in the field, outdoors, run and gun, etc., then I suppose this is a good product.

    I bought it for live indoor event use, mostly due to it's light weight, and really nice tall 63" max height, great reviews here, and generally excellent reputation of Miller. Unfortunately, it suffers from a bit of torsional flex. I'd say it's a bit whippy and tippy. So for what we do, it's not usable as a solid support where you're fully zoomed in on a podium in the back of an auditorium.

    First time using it, I had a shooter who owns the similar model Gitzo. His comment after the shoot was, these legs are pretty bad compared to my Gitzo. I've never personally used a Gitzo, but take that comment for what it's worth...

      Comments about Miller SOLO DV Carbon Fiber 2-Stage Tripod Legs (75mm Bowl):

      I've been using these sticks for a few years now and they don't disappoint. One of the best purchases I've ever made. They are very lightweight and versatile. You can go extremely low, or fairly high, they also have built in retractable spiked feet, when you need extra stability. They can also be taken apart, for easy cleaning, if you get sand or a lot of dirt in the threading.

      They definitely aren't meant for a super heavy load, and can be somewhat time consuming to change the height, given the twist locks, but overall an excellent, don't look back kind of purchase.

        The best things about these legs: no clips (they open with a twist), very sturdy, good padding, flexibility, excellent carrying strap. Solid but not heavy. Perfect for video.

          Comments about Miller SOLO DV Carbon Fiber 2-Stage Tripod Legs (75mm Bowl):

          I use Miller tripods for supporting my Canon HD camcorder. The solo sticks are light, fit in a duffle suitcase, and were nearly as easy to set up as my full-size set of sticks, which require a heavy special case for airline check-in. Performance was excellent. Highly recommended.
