Editorial Review: Product Description: In photography, a lot of time is spent getting to the location where you want to shoot. Sometimes in airplanes, trucks, buses, and often on foot. SLIK carbon fiber tripods greatly reduce the weight you have to pack, and can make the experience of "getting there" as enjoyable as getting the shots when you arrive.PRODUCT FEATURES:Gun Metallic only;SPRINT PRO legs with a compact all-metal 3-way pan head;Quick-release camera mount plate;An extremely lightweight and flexible tripod, great for travel photography.

 Rating:  - Great tripod, and it comes with a case tooVery nice tripod. Watch-out for the suggestive sale on the Slik tripod carrying case. We purchased it along with the tripod not knowing that Slik packages it with a travel case. The worst part is that the case Amazon suggest purchasing with this is too large for the tripod. Fortunately they agreed to take it back. So purchase the tripod and forgo the extra case and you will be happy. Rating: - Just the right size to fit in carry on bagI purchased this tripod about 1 year ago, and have been quite pleased. Its best feature is that it is short enough (due to 3-way) to fit inside a carry-on bag. Most other tripods are just too long. It also rises to over 6 foot in height when fully extended. It is not as stable as a Bogan (of course), but it's a lot more portable when on the go. I have this tripod and my Bogan, and this one gets used about 90% of the time. I also like the fact that is is quite light, yet quite strong. I did ...

It's a tad too flimsy for my tastes. The Bad With the legs at full length and the center column at the lowest point, the legs would bend a considerable amount. Out of 10 medium-exposure night shots taken with the tripod legs fully retracted, I could only get 2 shots to come ... Read More Rating:  - Fit my needs for a compact, solid tripidI first walked down a line of tripods at B&H here in NYC to see and feel the real versions of the digital pics I saw on the web. Since I am primarily a video guy with several bulky but steady 'pods, I wanted something to fit in a backpack with my new Nikon still camera. This one fit the bill for me. While we would all like to find a foot-long, 3 ounce and STEADY pod - it just ain't in the works yet. Rating: - Ideal for a smaller cameraI shoot with a Powershot G9, and this tripod seems a perfect match. The G9 is a small camera with lots of great features, and in similar fashion this tripod combines portability with flexibility. I especially appreciate the range of positions that the reversible and adjustable center column affords -- it really lets me explore the G9's macro capabilities. This tripod will get you up high and get right down to the ground, and it's easily converted from one position to the next. Nice and light and it ... Read More |
