Customer Reviews of Bogen / Manfrotto 785 Modo Maxi Photo Video Grip Head Tripod
Best hiking tripod? I searched quite a bit for a light yet sturdy tripod for hiking and travel. This is the best I found, and the price is very reasonable. The ball head is great and the grip easy to use and set -- I actually like it better than my more serious heavy tripod. I just wonder how the plastic parts will hold up over time.<
>It comes with a quick release (also very easy to use, but plastic), easily shortened center column, adjustment for video panning (limiting the range of motion, as desired), and a level. The legs are in 5 sections, with flip down clasps that are quick and easy -- better than screw or twist-type locks. The fifth section, however is necessarily quite narrow and a little flexible, if not wobbly.<

Perfectly good for what it is
I needed a basic field tripod, and this tripod exceeds my expectations for utility and support. I wish that it had come with a zippered carryall of some sort - and some metal in the head would have made it more sturdy. That being said, I am perfectly happy to use my Olympus E-500 on it with my 50-150mm standard Zuiko lens. <

>I find that this tripod is lighter than what I am used to carrying, and sturdier. The extra buckles are a nuisance - but the thing folds down into nothing! Plus, like another reviewer said, you can drop the height practically to the floor. The whole thing could be taller, maybe.
Great tripod
I was mainly looking for a tripod that I could easily carry. This tripod is quite light and versatile in the range of heights it will accommodate. As others have noted, if you're looking for sturdy, look elsewhere, but the advantage of portability makes this tripod very attractive. I also like the locking mechanisms, which are much more firm than those I've seen on some less expensive lightweight tripods. Even though the manufacturer suggests not using this tripod for SLRs, I have no problems using it with my Cannon Digital Rebel SLR, even with the 70-300mm telephoto.
