Question: I have a Hawk HT3694, 483 mm long weighing 5 Lbs. Will this tripod bee sturdy enough for this unit to be stable when used?
Document: It's not a ball-joint but for the price it's quite good. Very stable, but perhaps not heavy enough if you are really looking for something professional. Build quality is quite satisfactory.
Very pleased with the tripod - it has a very nice silky feel to the catches and threads that hold the head in place. I wouldn't call it 'heavy duty' by any stretch, but it can handle my Nikon D50 with a Nikkor 70-300mm zoom on it, without much problem.I have used a video tripod with my camera and it kept everything pretty tight and steady, for even long night-time shots.
I bought this tripod using previous experience with SLIK products. This was advertise as a heavy duty tripod. I have my doubts as I'm going to use this tripod for digiscoping. I believe that the scope/camera combination may be a little heavy for this tripod. It will be adequate for non DSLR cameras. I will update as to how long this product will last. Only four stars as the scope/camera combo makes the unit unstable.
I bought this tripod to use with a Celestron Ultima 80 model 52254 spotting scope with 45 degree eyepiece. The scope weighs 1.5 kg. the only complaint I have is that once I'm zeroed into the target of observation, the scope drifts down after tightening the proper adjustment and I have to compensate by anticipating the drift. The scope is 16 inches long and maybe that length puts too much forward weight on the mounting plate of the tripod.
Been through a number of tripods trying to find one that meets my needs (wildlife still photography) and I was apprehensive about this one but decided to go for it because of the relativley low cost. I'm glad I did! It meets my needs: lightweight, easy to set up, and sturdy. The only dislike I have is the quick-release mechanism - it's a little cheesy and they could have used a more appropriate material than flimsy cheap-o plastic.
This is an excellent value for the $ spent. The tripod is lightweight, stable and very easy to use. I particularly like the bubble level and the ease of camera attachment and removal. It provides a stable platform under most conditions. If you are shooting under windy conditions where there are gusts above 30-40 mph, there is some loss of stability.
I will tell you more when I get the new unit. The shipping box was crushed in and a small adjustment piece wan damaged. It seemto be a UPS goof and NOT a problem with the tripod itself. The seller has been very cooperative and responded to my emails very quickly. I would buy from them again.
I had an old slik tripod that I loved. So to stay with the brand loyalty - I chose this model. The quick release mount works only if you shoot in a horizontal position, the second you flip it to vertical - the screw loosens and the camera flops over. The screw won't wont stay tight enough to hold the camera steady.
I am new to videography. I just bought a Canon Vixia HG10 (High Def camcorder) and wanted a tripod solid enough to hold up the camera without any issues. For that concern, this tripod is excellent. It does its job fantastically and is very easy to extend, lock, and unlock with the tab mechanism built into the legs.I do have one complaint.
I am not much of a filming specialist, but I am very happy with this tripod. It is very sturdy and easy to adjust. The quick release for the camera mounting plate is a nice feature. For the price it is a good choice!
