    Best bang for your buck
    This is my 5th tripod since starting bird photography 3 years ago and is by far the best one..the legs are thick but not too heavy. It's very well made, sturdy, doesn't move around with weight on it. I shoot with a nikon D500 and a tamron 150-600mm G2 lens and a gimbal not pictured and it has no problem supporting it. It's relatively quick to set up and move too. Overall this is the best 200 tripod I've owned.. the legs are easy to lock. The center tube moves easily and locks solidly.. I'm only 5'9 so keep this part in mind that I don't even need to use the bottom legs extended for it to be eye level..I just extend the first set and bring up the center column like pictured. If you're on the fence about buying it I highly recommend that you do. I also use their monopod with a wimberely gimbal and it's great.
