Tested all the tighteners for tilt, pan and height and leg locks, all working well.
One of the three legs in the final section of extension is a bit stiff and doesn’t have the smooth slide out of the other two. All structurally sound though.
There is no quick shoe. Requires a cable between the camera and the remote.
There are some cosmetic scratches to the plastic in parts as photographed up close.
