Mine is new, so I can't comment on dependability. Beautiful tripod, appears to be well made. Tall and very sturdy, perfect for any dslr. I almost ordered the 700dx, but now I am glad I got this one. from Bhphotovideo.com Very stable and quick to set up. It is a litle heavy. from Adorama.com If your veiwfinder can be seen from above take some pictures this Christmass from the viewpoint of a child thats kneehigh to a man! I found the short center shaft I've spent months looking for, I recommend buying one as well as a 2nd. quick release plate, and bullseye hot shoe level with a 1/4"-20 hole like kaiser makes, you can attach it to the quick release plate to level the head or a center shaft to level the legs so when your panning to do a panoramic your parallel to the horizon. Pros: Good Stability, Lightweight, Unfolds Quickly Cons: 6 leg locks, 340 has 9 Best Uses: Christmass lights, Night photography, Panoramics from Adorama.com I was surprised at how beefy this tripod was when I received it. The build quality is excellent. The previous reviewer stated that his did not come with a carrying bag. Mine did. from Amazon.com This is a very well made and sturdy Tripod that should make a great companion for many years. Extending the legs vertically on this Tripod is very easily done and once the legs are set you can forget about them. from Amazon.com i'm in fair condition, and i don't think i'd have any problem hiking a few miles out and back with it, but it's not a lightweight. from Bhphotovideo.com i use a backpack on photo hikes so weight is not an issue.the tripod is very well made and the head adjustments are smooth which was an issue for me with cheaper tripods as well as stability.iam from Adorama.com it is a litle heavy. from Adorama.com if you hike long distances this may not be for you, you pay for the rock solid with weight. from Bhphotovideo.com excellent, strong and light weight tripod for the average enthusiast using heavy lens/camera combinations. from Amazon.com
