Comments about Sunpak PRO 624PX Carbon Fiber Tripod:
The tripod wasn't so good since the head wobbled on the column because the mounting threads weren't drilled/tapped deep enough so I returned it.
The return service by B&H was terrific though. They sent a prepaid return shipping label and credited my credit card in a couple of days.
