I followed the link and am appalled.

But theres an audience for such gadgets and if you are it, then this seems a Holy Grail and you should frollic in the thrill of owning it ... despite the hard truth that it wont really do diddly squat for your photography. It would certainly be detrimental to the work of a real photographer, by way of being another distraction.

OTOH, distracting gadgets mean Party Time when "photography" is far less about images and far more about enjoying ones toys. If that means you, pardy hardy, its only $600.

Never spent anywhere close to that for a "travel" tripod packed into checked luggage with MIA potential. Just sayin'
