So, I had to send the first one back. The centre column was not straight. In fact it was quite a way from being plumb. I checked all the locking nuts etc, even measuring the individual legs but no, it was defective. When the centre column was extended and the large orange locking nut was tightened, it pulled the column to one side. It was also noticeable when not extended. Not want you want with a tripod.
Not a good start but with good customer service from Amazon, I obtained a refund and ordered another. This time success!
This is a great tripod. The photo's of it are accurate. It feels good and it looks good. It has a good 'weight' to it and does appear to be well made. The ball head clamp tightens up well and there is no movement. Same with the legs, the lever locks are very good and once locked off there is no movement. An Allan key is provided to tighten up the bolts should the need arise.
I'm glad I wasn't put off by my first experience with this tripod. I have confidence in this tripod with my expensive gear on top!
