- Excellent for D-SLR Photography
I bought this for my Sony A300 D-SLR, and must say yet agian I'm impressed by Sony's products. The height this tripod reaches is great! I'm 6'4" and only have to bend slightly to use the view finder. One great feature is the detachable lock that you attach your camera too. This has a quick release mechanism that allows you to quickly detach your camera if you see something that you simply must snap!

One slight quibble was that when the tripod was fully extended it didn't seem as stable, there was a slight shake with a strong wind, but for the price I can put up with that!

- Brilliant First Tripod
This is my first tripod and im going to be using it mainly for camcorder usage but also it can be used with still cameras.

Its really nice and sturdy with thick legs. Ive seen a couple pics of other makes of tripods and the legs look really thin and flimsy! not the case on this tripod!

Nice little spirit level is a good feature and really does go from being small to being big! it comes to just above my eye level when fully extended legs and the head cranked up all the way with the neat little lever, and im around 5"9

Now im using a Sanyo Xacti HD700 on it at the moment and thats a really small and light video camera! but the tripod still provides quite smooth panning and tilting! It will be better with ... Read More:

I bought a Sony DCR SR 52 for my wife's birthday and want to get a tripod she can use with it. Is the VCT suitable.?

Or if not is there one that would do the job

Thanks

- Excellent
My first tripod!! Just got it few mins. ago (ordered 5pm 2 days ago - from KK Electronics) and its everything and more than expected! With everything extended, its taller than me! LOL (i'm just 5'1" anyway) Despite being very light, it feels very sturdy! Even comes with operating instructions! Loving the fact that the angle of the pad can tilt to 90 degrees... perfect for those portraits! Just wish it came with a carry on bag, this would have the perfect! Nevertheless, very very pleased!!

Edit:
Just to add, my quick release plate unscrewed itself when I left it on the camera while it was around my neck. It must have been an odd one because the second unit I bought fastens firmly. Anyway, Sony doesn't sell replacement ... Read More:
