This tripod is nice and I did not even have my camera, but I wanted to say some positive things. I had no idea of the weight and when it arrived, I was not sure it was the tripod, because the field was so simple. It is 3 pounds 3, but is very stable. It has 2 foot sections to extend the block and a small plane, so as to ensure that the tripod is level. The pot is very smooth and horizontal and vertical panning lock has controls so when you put it there not ändern.Ich am very happy with this tripod! Rating: 5 / 5

I have one of these for several years, and I was not disappointed. I am for everything from macro shots of electronics in the shooting of a wedding, and it worked wonderfully. It is stable and pans / tilts smoothly. It is not ideal for low blows, as it is a bit ‘high, even when everything collapsed. I am very happy with this tripod. Rating: 5 / 5

Stand in the product description reads: “… heavy, ideal for regular SLR cameras and camcorders.” I do not use a digital camera and small tripod Panasoic develop well. In fact, I would be surprised if it is not good with a camera. He presumably 3 “-Way Fluid Pan Head”, but it is not in a pan and sticks. The mechanism for the hole plate is also insufficient and locker.Ich can not be part of the tripod (the head). And ‘the light and the legs are easy to anzupassen.Dies not a prosumer product.

We ordered the tripod, because we do a lot of photos during a trip so we wanted something light. Before ordering this stand, we had to use a Velbon CX-540, it took five years from the wild. We expect that the DF-50 was similar in almost all the information that was made by Velbon and retractable metal spikes as a bonus. How much difference could be true? Now, the differences were large enough for us to return. Compared to the CX-540, the DF-50 grip is smaller and thinner, the tightening knobs are also smaller. (which feels cheap) The head of the screw that attaches to the camera release plate on the plastic model, therefore, it was difficult for the plate (even if the neighbor with a screwdriver, that I would not normally do) the most bigger and more annoying that the differences were not the tripod smoothly pan and tilt feature (vertical to take the shots), it was just very hard, but the position of the quick release plate was bad. A couple of times when I can not put the camera to make a record vertical, I removed the camera directly from the operation, because changing the place of issue badly. Finally, even when I tightened all the buttons will move the head of the tripod (I shoot with a Rebel XT
