Review: Versatile, lightweight and good looking yet rugged for outdoors. - Exceptional and very versatile. I used the plate that came with the tripod fitting it to my scope so it’s an easy coupling ready to go when I need it. The quality is obvious unlike cheap riveted tripods and I even found it had sure footing to used collapsed to lowest setting on a hide shelf so very pleased.
Review: Decently sturdy easy to set up quickly
