Review: This tripod has many things I like and nothing I don't like. Let's work our way from the bottom up. 1) It has large rubber feet with tread and an angled surface to maintain contact as you lower the pod 2) It only has two leg extensions, it makes for quick deployment 3) It has quick clamps for quick deployment, speeds things up even further 4) It has a nice rubber handle for moving around, better than foam found on many others 5) The quick release clamps are adjustable and come with the adjustment tool attached to tripod 6) The spider and components are of alloy construction 7) The spider has four over all adjustment for legs to set height 8) The spider has two attachment points for hanging weight and/or a bag as well, they are removed from the usual center post and that is a good thing. The spider is the best place to add weight 9) The center post meets the spider with an angled contact. I believe it adds stability over perpendicular 10) The head attachment surface on top is large, precision and has an extra screw from the bottom to secure head All these fine attributes and no real complaints. It does what a tripod is supposed to does it very well, it is very stable. The overall size makes it very versatile for a range of applications. I find the form factor to be compact and streamlined in spite of its length. I worked my way to this model from cheaper models. I frist tried the Manfrotto Compact Action. No go, to flimsy and imprecise. Then I tried the Manfrotto Element MII, much better but still vastly inferior to this model. The Manfrotto 290 extra is a winner. I paired it with a Neewer Professional 35mm ball head ($30) and have a very reliable and effective tripod.
