3 Legged Thing Punks Travis Aluminum Tripod Kit w/ AirHed Neo

Super lightweight and so much easier to carry around for the day unlike my much heavier Manfrotto. But unfortunately, here the good points end. It has been used mainly with my Canon 80D and 24-70 lens, so have not been using any heavy telephotos. I have not found the tripod to be very stable and was out taking some long exposure shots of about 5 seconds in moderately windy conditions. The resulting images had some motion blur which means that the wind was causing movement in the tripod. The legs also seem to flex somewhat. I have also had to tighten one leg up as there was virtually no resistance in it. Continuing with stability, I would now not trust this tripod in anything other than calm conditions, as when having taken an image and then looking in my camera bag, to my horror the tripod blew over complete with the above camera and lens. Very fortunately, and in spite of landing on concrete, I only broke an ND filter and the filter adapter ring. I have also noticed today that one of the rubber screw-in feet has fallen off somewhere, so I'm going to have to buy a replacement. I also consider that the tripod head is not substantial enough for an SLR. Unless you have the locking knob as tight as you can possibly get it, you are likely to get some unwanted movement due to gravity. All in all, I'm disappointed with this item and wish I had spent a bit more on a Benro or Manfrotto carbon fibre tripod.

I had high hopes for this tripod, and for the first week or so, everything has been super. However, for me, one of the legs has now gone impossibly stiff and is difficult to extend or retract, and one of the rubber feet has just disappeared.Dont get me wrong, it feels solid, but the screw tightening on the legs are counterintuitive and int build is disappointing. If I could, I would send it back.

A great balance of weight and fuctionalaity. Well thoughtout placement of spirit levels. Conversion to mon-pod is simple and quick to do. Good degree of adjustability on the leg length and angle of set.Not as short as some lightweights when packed away but on balance a price well worth paying.

I really like this tripod, i use it for landscape and wildlife with my canon 5d mk 4 supports 100-400 lens with no problem.

Have not purchased a tripod in 20 years; so very pleased I decided on this one. I think it is beautifully made and engineered. Used it over the weekend and it seems to give more than adequate support to my Fuji cameras and lenses. I do a lot of walking and see no problem carrying this with it’s size and weight.The service from Carmarthen Cameras was good. Have purchased from them before and have had no issues.
