 Excellent table top tripod September 2, 2008
Very stable table top tripod, works well and seems to be of good quality. All joints can be adjusted by hand from easily moved to essentially locked. My singular gripe is that when the tripod is all folded up it is as big around (circumference) as a normal sized tripod. It will still fit in a backpack which is good but don't expect to be stuffing this thing into your pocket unless your wearing MC Hammers parachute pants from the 80s.

i have bought some cheaper tripods but they were all junk within months. this is a very good deal on a solid tripod.
 Yep, Lowepro Lens Case 5 is the perfect fit for this tripod... April 25, 2008

... Nevermind that the case cost more than the tripod (at the time of my purchase); this tripod is just a good value for the money, well-made and sturdy. The only downside is that I had to pay extra for a case, but then again, any free case that might have come with it probably wouldn't have been near the quality of the Lowepro Lens Case 5.
Vanguard Mars-1 Tripod October 11, 2007

The Mars-1 tripod is extremely well made and the sturdiest tabletop model around. Crafted very much like their full size tripods, Vanguard did an excellent job designing this smaller unit which is handy for travel and macro. Features include a three way pan and tilt head with quick shoe, heavy duty braced expandable legs with snap locks that actually work, geared center post and even a spirit level. Unlike most flimsy lightweight small tripods, this one has the capacity to safely hold my Nikon D200 securely. The only reason for giving it 4 stars instead of 5 would be that on Vanguard's site it is described with a carrying bag which is NOT included (and they don't offer one for sale). Due to its rather hefty construction, even when folded it has too large a diameter to fit into any of the travel tripod cases. Luckily, I discovered after a lengthy search that a padded Lowepro Lens Case 5 fits great. Bottom line the Mars-1 is an excellent product at a great price on Amazon!

I am using this tripod with a spotting scope for shooting. It is the right size for what i need. I put next to me in prone shooting position, and it wasn't too bad. I had to lean up a little bit, but what to expect from a tripod. I usually use a sandbag for the prone, but it worked great for bench rest shooting and for a sitting position.
