Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Manfrotto 190XPROB 3 Section Aluminum Pro Tripod
Customer Review: My first legs
Summary: 5 Stars
Allow to start by saying, do not buy any of those inexpensive tripod, you will waste money. Buy one of these. If you are not walking around for 5 hours or climbing hills and mountains, this works fine. The tripod is sturdy. Being able to flip the main shaft and use the camera upside down is a plus. If you use shaft horizontally do not forget to counterbalance it. My only issue with this is that I need to extend the shaftm in order to avoid hunching into the eyepiece, making everything more susceptible to wind. So my next legs would be a bit longer to accommodate my 176cm (5'9") better.Customer Review: Keeping Steady for the best shot!
Summary: 5 Stars
This tripod is well built, light weight, stable, good for back packing due to size and for the $$ value, "OUTSTANDING"! Operates completely as advertised with all pros no cons... All my other 3 tripods and 2 mono-pods are Manfrotto just because I think they are the best!! Why so many support tools?? I shoot in many types of settings, each requiring a specific weight and type of support tool and operating head from the studio to out and about, sports and back packing. Having the right Manfrotto support tools in photography, helps to make life and my shots that much better...Customer Review: Worked Well for a While
Summary: 2 Stars
This tripod worked well for about a year and then the small levers inserted at the top of the legs (the ones you press to allow the legs to spread wider than the standard width) corroded and became unusable. The tripod can still be used in a limited way. I will end up replacing the unit pretty soon. It appears to me that the metal used in this area is of substantially poorer qualtiy than the rest of the unit. This isn't a $900 carbon fiber tripod and I didn't expect it to last as long (forever). It isn't a cheapee either, though, and it should have lasted longer.Customer Review: Amazing tripod
Summary: 4 Stars
This tripod is amazing and you can position it the way you like. Good for macro and indoor photography. I have a wide angle lens and I wanted to shoot my living room and the best spot was to almost attach the camera to a wall where you cannot look throught the view finder. With this tripod you can make it by using the extended bar that can be repositioned to an L-like position. My only gripe about this tripod is that it is relatively heavy. It doesn't come with a head, so you would still need to buy one and that would add more weight.
Customer Review: Perfect.
Summary: 5 Stars
The Perfect tripod for someone who wants quality for the best price possible. This tripod is wonderful. I have used it all over the country, Alaska, Pacific Coast Highway, Grand Canyon, Virginia, Colorado. I am fairly adventurous in my photography and will often go to places that most people consider too dangerous or difficult and this stand had stood up to everything. Also it holds my 50D with lens and flash if I need it without any problem whatsoever. I love this tripod it is high quality and a great price for the quality you get.
