2 Stage Aluminum Video Tripod w/ GH06Fluid Pan/Tilt Head, Maximum Height: 67″, Variable Tilt/Drag, 13.2 lb. Capacity, Includes Padded Shoulder Bag (EG06A2) - Black

Very sturdy for a range of camera setups in multiple settings. Not the lightest on the market, but the quality is worth the extra effort to move it !

I used this tripod and fluid head combo for a three day destination wedding. The tripod is well built. Immediately It was a noticeable improvement over the $300 tripods that I am accustomed to using. The fluid head is smooth and the ease of raising and lowering the tripod is wonderful. It was a joy to use.The weight is wonderful for stabilizing heavy rigs and sliders. Regrettably, I found the tripod to be a little too heavy for my run-and-gun needs. However, I believe this is would make a great studio tripod. The value at this price point is outstanding.

Upon receiving this tripod, the head's tilt tension knob was locked and wouldn't turn. No matter what I've tried, I can't make it turn, leading me to believe it's defective. The mechanism clicks whenever the tripod is turned up or down. So I decided to check out their warranty. It's a 1 year warranty, but you have to send it to them to fix - pay for it to get there, and pay for it to return to you. Although the company's manufacturing is poor and they didn't check it worked, I would have to eat the costs of their repairs.I wouldn't trust this company for a reliable product. At this price, I expected more.

- Looks good, but feels like cheap head.- The handle clicks like loosen teeth, had to add some tape inside.- The tilt axle, you can feel a gap in the middle point.- I wish to have more drag steps. 3 steps is not enough for me, too light, not so cinematic.
