Just recently purchased SP 75 On-Ground Tripod Spreader, very good product, fast shipping, excellent conditions! It is FULL of features and is great at more than just a spreader. This Spreader holds it easily and guiding is almost perfect for tripod shooting all angles without problem. Highly Recommended the products I buy from B&H photo video and willing plan to purchase more from B&H.

Sachtler almost always gives you top quality products and parts, in which you can tell that plenty of time and thought of human centered design has been put into. This on-ground spreader for 75mm tripod legs are the standard floor spreaders for Sachtler 75mm tripod legs, and the quality of the build is there for all to see. Sturdy build, good quality material used, all this while still maintaining an aesthetic appeal.

However, i've heard that in the long run, there is just one flaw with this spreader. That is when the joints that join all 3 sections of the spreader get seasoned, the center of the spreader will actually dip when lifted, which might be a hindrance when moving about. Another thing that makes me give it only 4 stars is its price (Good things don't come cheap) being a tad on the high side.

But if you pay peanuts you get monkeys, so i guess you have to pay good money for German engineering.

(P.S when purchasing a spreader for your tripod. one should take note of the type of locking system of the legs to the spreader, and the minimum stretch of the rubber catch in this case. Some 'universal' spreaders and tripods are not compatible, thus always do make sure of this key point)

If collapsed too quickly without everything being even, this light weight plastic will just snap.

This OEM replacement spreader makes the tripod whole again and work like brand new.

Cheap plastic that will break easily, but for a Sachtler tripod it is the only choice.

This is the third on ground spreader I have bought for my Sachler DV tripod. It's great for running and gunning and getting quick shots but it also takes a beating. At [$], it is rather pricey to be replacing it every other year but on the whole, it works great.

This is something that I really needed since it allows me to set up the tripod quickly. I do a lot of live events, so it really was a necessity.
