poor service
Sony VCT-R640 Standard Tripodbought this item seems ok until you realise they never put the quick release plate or instructions in the box.had to buy a quick release plate,in the end i might as well got the more expensive version.

Excellent for D-SLR Photography
I bought this for my Sony A300 D-SLR, and must say yet agian I'm impressed by Sony's products. The height this tripod reaches is great! I'm 6'4" and only have to bend slightly to use the view finder. One great feature is the detachable lock that you attach your camera too. This has a quick release mechanism that allows you to quickly detach your camera if you see something that you simply must snap!

One slight quibble was that when the tripod was fully extended it didn't seem as stable, there was a slight shake with a strong wind, but for the price I can put up with that!

Brilliant First Tripod
This is my first tripod and im going to be using it mainly for camcorder usage but also it can be used with still cameras.

Its really nice and sturdy with thick legs. Ive seen a couple pics of other makes of tripods and the legs look really thin and flimsy! not the case on this tripod!

Nice little spirit level is a good feature and really does go from being small to being big! it comes to just above my eye level when fully extended legs and the head cranked up all the way with the neat little lever, and im around 5"9

Now im using a Sanyo Xacti HD700 on it at the moment and thats a really small and light video camera! but the tripod still provides quite smooth panning and tilting! It will be better with a larger, heavier video camera.
