I bought this specifically for its portability, light-weight and good to travel with around. It fits well into my carry-on. from Adorama.com I am typically a street portraiture photographer, social documentarian...so I tend to head out with one or two camera bodies and a lens on each, but not much more equipment than that...but, I do shoot a ton of cityscapes as well, nighttime long exposures and early morning sunrises with a ND filter to slow the shutter so I was in need a lightweight, sturdy "basic" tripod to carry with me from time to time and the Bogen - Manfrotto 718B made the most sense. It's light, easy to assemble and break down and provides a sturdy companion for my 20D, battery grip and heavy L lenses. from Adorama.com i'm still learning how to effectively use a monopod for sports photography, but since this tripod is relatively lightweight and easy to use, i don't mind carrying it along. from Adorama.com i use this as a alternative in the field for wildlife since it is easy and light weight but sturdy enough for most shots. from Adorama.com not the best for shooting macros and such, but for most general purpose shooting it's a good buy for the $ and for ease of use. from Adorama.com i bought this specifically for its portability, light-weight and good to travel with around. from Adorama.com construction is typical bogen, very solid relative to weight. from Adorama.com the locks are positive and easy to use. from Amazon.com i like the light weight monfrotto better-easier set up- just as light but sturdier. from Adorama.com i actually use a small backpack for my camera, so i loop one of the legs through the strap for easy carrying. from Adorama.com
