Travel Tiltall

[Soocom1]

So I finally got my travel tripod.

And NO I am NOT being paid by anyone for this!

I purchased a Tiltall TE 244 and am not regretting it.

This is it next to itsl older brother.
Note: The silver one is older than I am. The ol' man purchased in in 1960.

The camera setup is a Canon 1D and a 100-400 lens. The combo is 7 lbs.

The head was purchased separately and is suppose to be able to hold 30 lbs. The ball didn't move or drift!

It also breaks into a monopod.

But THIS impressed me! The camera is 7lbs, and the bag has 12 lbs of equipment in it.

The legs DID NOT bow!

Nice looking bit of kit. Always good to get something new.

Nice set of legs, hanging the bag like that will help stabilise the tripod in high wind
