Pros & Cons
Pros
Lbs) it goes very well with my canon rebel xsi and most lenses (50mm, 18-55mm. It has no serious problem to hold my pentax *istds with 70-300mm lens or nikon d70s with 18-70 mm. It is also stable enough for my slr with a medium-heavy 105mm macro lens ... Read More
The quality on this tripod is first rate. Not to mention the desing is excellent. Good price for a bogen/manfrotto. I babble in this review but i'll be danged if ya don't know a lot about it now.
The unit is compact, lightweight and very compact. It fit easily in our backpack and my husband hardly noticed it was there when he was carrying it. It's so so compact you can carry it around in a little travel bag or briefcase or backpack.
The long legs allow you to get a wide stance with this tripod. The narrower stance of shorter legs is less resistant to tipping. The variable legs, and removable extension stem make this tripod an excellent addition to any outdoor photographers bag.
This little guy really rocks. I have a professional manfrotto tripod and this is a nice casual companion.
Cons
All 785 series tripod from manfrotto have a major flaw. The * that tighten the extend legs show plastic fatigue. Metal * should be used instead. I feel this is a design flaw. Many of them also have shown cracking indications already.
The thumb grip button for the ball, you press it and a second later it pops up by itself. Avoid it like the plague.

It combines the tripod and head in a relatively light weight and very versatile set that holds a somewhat heavy dslr securely
Fits my canon 400d and nikon d80 well and everything was good until it broke yesterday
I have been able to snap blurfree pictures every time even night time shots using this tripod which would otherwise have been unthinkable
Price
I was looking for a inexpensive light quality tripod
All and all a good little tripod for the money
Thus if you need something better then pay more and stop complaining about products that do what they are suppose to do
This is a decent little tripod for the money
Shipping
By the time i got this setup i was past the return date
Packaging/appearance
They packed a lot of versatility and functionality into this lil puppy
For packing it can be made small
Competitiveness
In comparison to other light weight tripods it seems very steady to me
I have found that the manfrotto 785 works really well for my needs
There seems to be a huge gap between cheap tripods and expensive ones

This same removability allows you invert the center post for extreme closeups so that the camera is firmly positioned underneath the tripod’s three legs
