What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Not plastic but sturdy aluminium, adjustable head. Holds my canon 200 with any lens no problem.

Price
Manfrotto is one of the best tripod manufacturer

I use a canon 250d and using the kit lens this seems to hold fine
Just a mini tripod and a manfrotto for around £30
On the strength of this i bought a manfrotto monopod which has a similarly premium feel

However the rubber stops on the feed and the gentle stiffness of the legs means they can be opened part way without fear of the slipping to full extension at least with the lighter devices like the iphone and sony compact
