Review: Best bang for the buck! - After reading all of the reviews of this tripod and others like it, some more expensive, some less, I decided to buy the Slik Pro 700DX. My reasoning, for what I know of what I need for doing photography, mostly HDR, I need a steady platform.I read up on some lighter tripods, even the ultra expensive carbon fiber tripods, and even some of the light weight aluminum tripods, much like the one that I had before buying the Slik tripod. What I can say from experience, is that if you are a photographer, or wanting to become a photographer, having a tripod that minimizes vibrations, and shaking is very important, so when I read all of the complaints about this tripod being too heavy, I knew this was the right one! A heavier tripod greatly reduces vibrations, movement, and excess play, giving you the crisp, steady shots that come out beautiful, especially when using your auto bracketing function. When taking several shots of the same object at different exposures, it is imperative that your camera does not move, to ensure that you get the same frame in every shot. This Slik tripod, and its extra weight that the other weaklings complain about, does exactly that, it gives you the heavier base for ultra steady shots! Couple this tripod with a remote trigger, and you have the makings of a beautiful set up. Since I have received my Slik tripod I have used it exclusively, leaving my more expensive lighter weight tripod in its bag in the corner. Light weight is overrated! This may be just my opinion, however I am sure their are other experienced photographers out there that agree, you will see other tripods that look better because they come with other gadgets, like one I saw recently that had a compass on it. Don't be fooled! The extra gizmos are just a poor attempt at boosting sales, for instance why would you need a compass? Are you going to do a composition titled, northerly photos? Give me a break! All you need is a solid, steady tripod, one with decent height adjustment, like this slik, bubble levels to make sure you are horizontal when the shot calls for it, and the ability to be able to invert your camera angles for macro shots, all of the functions this tripod has! Eventually you may find that you want a different head, but unless you plan on doing moving shots at football games, the 3-way pan tilt head on this tripod is good enough! 99% of the time you will frame your shot, then take it, it's not necessary to have super fluid ball heads, and all the other gimmicks that will cost you an extra 3-500 dollars. Save your money for the important things like lenses, ultra fast CF cards, lighting equipment, etc... One other thing, I also saw several negative comments about the locking mechanism that holds the camera in place, some saying they didn't feel it is secure enough, trust me when I say the locking mechanism on this tripod is top notch! I lock my camera in and then grab the camera with both hands and lift it up with the tripod, and there is no wiggle room or slippage, I also do macros with the camera almost completely inverted, and have had no issues. The locking mechanism for the legs is top notch as well, they are not cheap plastic, and to the guy who claimed he felt like they would easily break, you would have to do something really stupid to break them! It would take a lot to break the locking tabs on the legs, I mean unnecessary carelessness, and roughness. Any photographer that knows what they are doing is going to take care of their equipment, no matter how much they paid for it. Take care of your equipment, and your equipment will take care of you when it is time to take that award winning shot! I highly recommend this tripod, and for those new to photography who are looking for their first quality tripod, you will not find a better tripod for this low price! Trust me I have looked. I found absolutely no negative qualities for this tripod, it is the perfect tool for the job!
Review: Stunning Value - I don't write many reviews, but this product drove me to the computer. The value received for price paid for these tripod legs is almost unbelievable. I expected good construction because this product is well regarded on desertcart as well as other retailers who sell the product. Even so, the solidness and features of this tripod are way beyond my expectations. Pros: Everything locks down very well, but is not to "tight" to release Saw a review that it gets cold, but there is foam padding to help with this. Three position adjustment on leg angle (in a $90 tripod!) Length of the center column is adjustable (bottom half screws right off) to allow pictures close to the ground. Center column is REVERSIBLE allowing shooting REALLY close to the ground I am 6'3". No stooping! This is the first tripod I've owned that has this much height. Cons: That construction quality "Pro" means a heavy and bulky tripod, meaning this is not an all occasion product. Getting out of the car and shooting - yes. Hiking to the top of a mountain at 4 am - not so much. The measurements are all in the description, but I guarantee this will be larger than you expect. That said, I recommend this product HIGHLY if you are looking for an entry level pro product. This thing has bells and whistles that I would normally look for on tripods in the $200+ range. Until I become convinced that I should trade my car for a carbon fiber tripod, I will deal with a couple of extra pounds and quietly laugh at all of the other shooters that paid WAY to much. Bottom Line -- This is a STEAL. Buy it quick before Slik figures out that it would still be a good deal at a much higher price!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Curious to know if the Pro 700DX works well for occasional video applications.  Have a D-4, and would like to take some video of my Whippet running.**
A: Sorry this is so late, but hopefully this will help.  As far as stability is concerned, this tripod won't let you down.  However, for video, panheads just aren't the best way to go.  This particular panhead is very smooth and will work decently for video and outperform most other panheads I have dealt with, but you're really going to want a different head for video if you intend to use this tripod.The stability and versatility you get with this tripod are phenomenal for the price.  You could buy the legs only (around $100 right now on Amazon) and get a fluid video head (EI-717AH for around $75 on Amazon) and have a great video tripod package for the same price as the 700DX with the panhead.  That would be the route I would go if I was planning on shooting video with my tripod.

**Q: Am I correct in assuming this works with a Canon 70 D; and with a heavy and long  200 mm zoom? Thanks.**
A: Short answer, Yes. This tripod is strong enough to handle any 35mm format camera and lens combo (less than 20lbs of total weight). If you’re using a lens that weighs more than the camera body you should use a lens mount to the tripod head to prevent the mounting ring on the camera body from bending or warping. 

Also, at a rating of almost 20lbs, this tripod should work for any medium format camera and many large format cameras as well!

**Q: will this work with a spotting scope or is it set up primarily for cameras??**
A: “In General” spotting scopes and cameras (film SLR, DSLR, mirrorless, video...) use a standard 1/4 inch attachment that is on almost all (haven’t seen one that doesn’t) tripod heads. Tripods are typically sold as a set of legs and head, but they can be found separately. Legs connect to the head typically through a 3/8 inch connector. The head to the camera or scope through a 1/4 inch connector. 

For a spotting scope, you’ll probably be happiest with a video type tripod head, but in general, any head should work just fine.

**Q: Is the head detachable? Possible to change heads from what comes along ?**
A: Yes. It has a standard 3/8 inch mount so you should be able to mount any head (with standard threading) to the tripod.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My one photographic constant
*by A***N on May 14, 2017*

I've owned this tripod for about six years now. In that time, I have moved from a 450D to a 5D Mark IV, from a kit lens to fast zooms and faster primes. I never once felt the need to upgrade my tripod. This thing is solidly built. The clamps holding the extending legs in place are very easy to use. What is extremely convenient is that I can extend one set fully, then use the center column to raise my camera to eye height for shooting. It is also extremely stable. A couple years ago, I took some early morning shots at Bryce Canyon. It was extremely windy at the time, but this thing held my camera solidly in place and I got very sharp shots. I have also accidentally knocked this when shooting and it is stable enough to where your kit won't easily tip over; it saved several thousand dollars worth of camera equipment from falling into Reflection Lake on account of my clumsiness when I was taking a morning photograph of Mount Rainier. The quick release plate is very securely held and won't move unless you want it to. It easily holds my 5D Mark IV and 70-200mm f/2.8 in portrait orientation. A quick release bushing will keep things in place if you accidentally forget to lock the release plate using the locking lever. Although I've never tried it, the center column can be reversed if you want to photograph with the camera close to ground level. The panhead has two bubble levels to help with alignment. I've found this tripod to be very portable. I've taken this with me to a good number of National Parks in the US, to Canada, England, and India. Whether I have driven, taken this tripod as a carry on, checked it in, or couriered it to my destination, it has happily taken these abuses. It has also lived in the trunk or floor of my car for months and been knocked around a good bit. And the only signs it shows of all these various adventures and scuffles are some paint scuffs on the pan head. There is not a single tear in the foam grip, and the manufacturer logo painted on to the foam is still legible. Recently, I had occasion to contact Slik's customer service by email for two issues - I needed help installing a ball head, and the locking plate was finally beginning to slip in the bracket in portrait mode with a heavy camera/lens. They responded to both emails within two hours with extremely helpful and very easy to follow instructions, and in the case of the issue with the locking plate, a detailed diagram showing how to adjust a tensioning wheel to keep the plate in place. I was considering a Manfrotto ball head, but was so impressed with the service that I purchased the Slik model. All in all, this is an extremely well built, easy to use, and very effective tripod. Slik also appears to be backing this with some excellent technical support. I simply could not recommend this more highly. Update - I have been using it now for long exposure astrophotography, which is about the most demanding application I can think of. Easy to mount something like an iOptron on it. Rock solid; takes a heavy counterweight, my 5D IV and a 70-200+1.4x extender with no problem. Attached photo is of M33 taken over 45 minutes.
