This tripod is compact, well built and amazingly light (2.7 lbs / 1.2 kg) compare to regular tripod. The built-quality is very good, it is better than average $50 tripod.
It is also simple to set-up. It has most of the features beginner need such as built-in bubble level which is helpful to straighten up the horizon and a quick release ball head. At first, it is quite hard to plug quick release head in, but after a while, it is easier. It also comes with quality carrying case.
Before you buy this lens, make sure that you check the max height and capacity and maximum capacity of the tripod. It is 56.9 in (1445 mm) with center column fully extended, and the maximum capacity is 10.3 lbs (4.7 kg) which is okay for digital SLR camera with average zoom lens.
The tripod is compatible with other INDURO ballheads and panheads. I highly recommend this kit for adventure/travel photographer who likes to travel light.
