Unless you're an amateur, this can be your first tripod
By Tanmay Toraskaron
Ordered this about a month ago, delivery was fast even by ordering on a Saturday. But the product itself is questionable. It's a small sized compact tripod, about 5 feet. It's good for a starting point, but initially even you will get fed up of it within a short span. It's not sturdy, lightweight being the problem, can be knocked over by a small wind also. The grip and head do not hold all cameras, you definitely can't use professional cameras. Maybe just the regular handycams or cheap digital cameras. You can give it a shot, but really it's not very worth it.
Cheap is as cheap gets

I had to buy this when I was in a pinch for using it with my Nikon D3200. It's a very basic low-cost tripod and you get what you should. The legs fold away decently well and haven't slipped much when i have used it at different terrains but the Head is horribly disappointing. While the horizontal movement is decent the vertical movement is jerky and does not lock at all. It works fairly well, subject to the above limitations, on a small ens like the 18-55mm or the the 35 or 50 mm prime lenses but is impossible for bigger lenses like the 55-300 even at 55mm. At 200 mm you might as well prepare to say goodbye to your lens and possibly your camera. Wouldn't recommend this for use with any DSLR to be honest. Your camera is worth a lot, don't break it by using this tripod. Its decent for anything other than a DSLR.
Nice Product So Far

I Bought this Product About 5 Months Ago For My Nikon D5100. Using It Since Then. I Use 18-55 Lens Kit, So Over All Load Is Around 700 g. I Never Felt Any Lack of Sturdiness. (Yet To Test With A Telephoto Lens Like 70-300 VR or 55-300 VR.) Works fine for me. But Off Course, If You Have A Heavier DSLR Like D7100 or Any Full Frame DSLR, You Better Go For A Much Higher Range Tripod, That Weights About 5-6 KG.
Pan Head Is Very Good For Shooting Panorama, Panning. Overall It is A Value for Money If You Have A APS-C DSLR or A Mirrorless Camera or A Bridge. Go For It !
Value by for Money

I brought this from Chandini Chowk from delhi for a 1400. I had finalized a not so branded digipro tripod worth 1500 when i decided to give another shops a shot and came across this. I got to learn a lot of things by looking for other models. Even though the pricing was same, i went for benro because of its build quality. Benro is an international brand and cant compare the quality to other local products. Also, i got a three year warantee on this. The vendor told me that unlike other tripods, the subparts of benro are very easily available and in case of any breakage, one can go for repair instead of buying a new one alltogether. Note that this tripod offers three way movement (some cheap ones offer only two way movement which is a serious drawback, so just notice in case you plan to chose some other brand)
excellent product
By Tibin Thomason
I would say, "the best you can get for a beginner."
It was during the early days after college, we thought of making a video compilation of our memorable college life. Upon seeking experienced advice, we decided to get a tripod in order to have a professional touch and that is how we ended up in this product. To be honest, it would have been a disaster to have the film shot without one of this.
