Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Manfrotto 725B Digi Tripod with Integrated Ball Head with Dove Tail Plate and Carrying Bag (Black)
Customer Review: Stable tripod for light equipment
Summary: 3 Stars
With an interesting hexagonal leg profile, an average ball head, a decent carrying bag all in a fairly light package, this tripod may be consider by the owners of a SLR-like or point-and-shoot cameras who want a quick buy. But again, if you care about how much weight you carry with you and care less about quality than practicality, why would you spend over $100 for something significantly heavier than your camera. Needless to say that who has an SLR and is looking for a tripod, they should keep looking. Here is a short comparison with other two tripods: http://anonimu72.blogspot.com/.Customer Review: An excellent tripod
Summary: 4 Stars
The two aspects of tripods that have always confounded me have been the clip in mechanism that secures the camera to the tripod, and the positioning system, usually two arms that twist. This tripod has solved those dilemmas. The ball positioning system is slick, quick, simple and stable. The clip in mechanism is quick and simple; but it's a bit tricky and takes some practice.
Bear in mind, my cameras a medium sized digitals, not full force SLR digitals with monster lenses.
Bottom line: this is the best tripod I have ever owned, and would buy it again.
Customer Review: Great Tripod.
Summary: 5 Stars
For what I paid, I wasn't expecting the greatest tripod in the world, especially when I realized it was designed for point and shoots, but let me tell ya, this tripod works extremely well.
Its a very tough tripod, but very small when you fold it up, and its weight capacity surpised me. It held my D200 fairly well, with a little bit of trouble on vertical shots, but the ball head is great.
It even held the D200 with the 300 f/4 fairly well for a few shots, and for just over $100 bucks, that's not half bad :p.
Customer Review: Bogen-Manfrotto 725B Tripod
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this lite weight tripod for travel. My only concern was its ability to hold my Nikon D200 with a heavy 17-55 Zoom lens and a 180 MM lite tele lens. It handles both with ease.
The tripod is easy to set up and take down, sturdy and goes high enough for me (and I'm 6' 2"). The mini ball head has a bit of downward creep with a heavy lens, but this is not a surprise.
All in all I consider this a good value and a quality piece of equipment.
Ciao.

Summary: 5 Stars
This tripod is the best ever. Its in budget price, the ball-head is perfect for free adjusting, works fast. It expands into huge-ness. Considering that I'm 6'4" and it levels almost exactly to my eye. :). The bag is sturdy, and the tripod itsself is sturdy. Only it gets wobbly when you extend it fully. I think the description of the height is a bit wrong... But i havent measured my self. The only flaw is that the head is shaking, but it can be fastned with a 6-sided screwdriver.
