Slightly disappointed with the ball head
Tripod itself is ok, the latches were very stiff to start with but eased up very quickly, perhaps too quickly as there does not seem to be a way of re-tensioning them. The ball head was a disappointment, unscrewing itself at every opportunity. The double-ended bolt that secures the head to the tripod was installed upside down and there is no locking grub-screw to stop the head unscrewing itself despite the fact that the collar has a threaded hole for that purpose. That said, the loose head problem could possibly be addressed with a little blue threadlocker (don't use red) so I won't be returning it just for that. The light weight of the tripod means that hanging your camera bag off the hook is always a good idea. The ball head coped well with the weight of a Canon 80D plus 300mm lens with no sign of the tripod lower legs flexing. Not recommended to use the center column at full extension as it will wobble! The included tripod bag is of good quality.
