Pros: | Tall, sturdy, rugged, carrying case | Cons: | leg feet are cheap rubber | | Being a taller person I wanted a tall tripod with thick stable legs and I came across the Fancier on ebay for a reasonable price. The tripod itself is very sturdy and the center column is as well even when extended. The only thing I didn't really care for was the rubber feet. I've since swapped them out for a set of Manfrotto feet with extendible spikes. I have had to tighten the screws on the legs from time to time but that's not a big issue. I shoot a lot at night in frigid cold weather and the tripod has stood up to all my expectations. The foam pads really help when carrying it in the cold and also for resting on your shoulder when walking around. It also comes with a nice nylon carrying case. For the price this is a very good deal for a very solid set of legs.
