The key things about this tripod is that is compact, light, and converts into a monopod. If you are in need of fluid drag head for video, I can include a Manfrotto MVH500AH head instead of the one that comes with the tripod. PLEASE let me know which head you prefer.

This tripod can be a little wobbly with a large camera on it, and the center section raised, so I highly recommend looking at one of my more sturdy tripods if you think that you be an issue for you.
