Picked up this tripod for something to carry while hiking that wasn’t too long, this fit the bill perfectly. It collapses quite small comes with a nice neoprene style case similar to what the peak design travel tripods come with, unfortunately no real secure way to attach a carrying strap to the case they provide I ended up buying a Pro master case that fit it well. I also swapped out the rubber feet with Gitzo retractable spikes. Tripod sets up solid and is very stable. Holds my 6D and lenses well. Although I am a little thrown off as I am used to SLIK tripods either being made in Japan or Thailand, this one is made in China so far the quality is 100% on SLIK quality. If you are looking for a full back leg style travel tripod, I highly recommend it. Top quality without breaking the bank.
