Its a very good tripod especially for the money but its not exactly light to hold a spotting scope for range days which is why I got it its perfect out the truck set it up then back in the truckI would not want to carry it around with me for long for birdwatching or photography

Further to my last review I would confirm the following the the tripod. HEAD: Started to have movement in that the head would rock backwards. The issue has been raised on other sites. However , I found that if I turn the head clock wise slowly everything tightens up and no movement can be detected. Hope this helps other users if they had the same problem. Otherwise please with my purchase.

I acquired this tripod for use with my Hawke Spotting Scope. For the money the Tripod is very good value for money and does appear well made but time will see if if i am correct. Smooth operation through out is a real bonus.
