Nice looking little tripod Manfrotto Compact

[skyscraper]

Was in PC world today and saw this. It is very compact and seems quite firm and has a carry case with no sticky outy bits so easy to stuff in your rucksack. Looks perfect for a lightweight well balanced antenna tracker, though prob not great if your tracker is heavy or unbalanced..

Looks decent.

I ordered a cheap lightweight one from Banggood(£7)

http://www.banggood.com/Wholesale-WT3110A-40-Inch-Aluminum-Tripod-Stand-For-Camera-DSLR-Camcorder--p-45561.html

It didn`t turn up after several weeks waiting so I opened a dispute.

They refunded me,then a few days later it arrived.

Of course  I contacted them to let them know :+ :laugh:

That is the one I have now. :) Unfortunately it is a bit too lightweight. I was a bit enthusiastic and  pulled one of the extending legs right out  and now I have had to screw it back so it can't retract.. Its also a bit wobbly. I tested the Manfrotto one and though it had less bits, it seemed to be less wibbly wobbly. Maybe the legs are made of thicker section material.
