Hi,

Does anyone have one of these http://www.manfrotto.com/Jahia/site/manfrotto/cache/offonce/pid/13405, what are they like, suitable for DSLR + Flash ?

Thanks

Yep I've got one of these, nice and light and folds down to a nice small size. It can just about take a 400D with the sigma 70-300 but I wouldn't add anything heavier to it.

For £50 it's not bad!

Haha! What a coincidence.... I was on a popular photography retailers website, and was looking for a tripod, and noticed this. £60 was the price I saw....

tempting! I'm not sure I can justify or even afford a 190 and head at the mo.

Cheers Rob, I plan to use it with a nikon D50 & 18-200VR, so hopefully it should be ok
