 Fine product July 25, 2008
This is a very good tripod. I have a Canon 35mm SLR with 4 lenses, and a Nikon DSLR with 2 lenses(no lenses over 1 1/2 pounds) It is steady and solid with both cameras. I've used it indoors and out (dirt and sand) and in breezy weather. Not sure how it would do in a hurricane, but personally I don't want to find out. It does the job for me.
 4 Stars for the Sunpak 9002DX - Great Tripod for the Beginners July 24, 2008
UPS just delivered this tripod and i played around with this for a while. Lots of features. The tripod allows you to move the camera in almost all possible directions. Perhaps the best feature is when fully collapsed, it stands around 25 inches high. However when fully expanded. It around 6.5 ft high. So now matter how tall you are(unless you play in the NBA) you would be able to extend the height of the camera.
Why did i not give it 5 stars? As many other reviews, i agree that the plastic material used is nowhere near top quality and the entire tripod doesnt feel rock solid. But its solid enough for me(being a beginner).
And yeah, the extra camera mount is a plus. Now i can mounts my other camera on the same tripod real quick without having to remove the mount from first camera.
And yeah, free shipping and no tax is a good reason to buy this from Amazon.
'THE BEST TRIPOD EVER' July 20, 2008
THIS IS A GREAT PIECE OF EQUIPMENT USED BY AN AMATEUR PHOTOGRAPHER. I HAVE REALLY ENJOYED USING THIS TRIPOD FOR HIGHER SETTINGS FOR MY SONY HANDYCAM CAMERA. GREAT SHOTS OVER PEOPLE'S HEADS AND IT WORKS REALLY WELL WHEN TAKING PICTURES ALSO. IT HELPS ME NOT TO HOLD THE CAMERA FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME, WHILE IT CAN BE VERY TIRING. USED THE CAMERA TRIPOD FOR A WEDDING AND HELPED ME QUITE A BIT. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS TRIPOD TO ANYBODY, INCLUDING AMATEURS AND PROFESSIONAL PROTOGRAPHERS. BUYING EQUIPMENT FROM AMAZON.COM, THAT I TRUST VERY MUCH WITH ALL MY HEART. THIS INTERNET COMPANY HAS THE BEST EQUIPMENT ANYONE CAN BUY FOR A VERY LOW PRICE. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY FOR ANYONE TO USE IF YOU ARE PURCHASING STEREO EQUIPMENT, CD'S, DVD'S, CAMERA EQUIPMENT, HARDCOVER BOOKS,CAMERA CASES AND TRIPOD CASES. THIS SUNPAK TRIPOD IS THE VERY BEST YOU CAN BUY BY A LOW PRICE, GIVE IT A TRY. I DID, I AM VERY SATISFIED WITH MY PURCHASE.
Very good tripod July 17, 2008
I bought it for my Canon SX100. This tripod is very good at a great price. It meets all my requirements.
Decent Tripod July 8, 2008
The first tripod I received had the head snapped off. I got a replacement shipped very quickly though. This is a good all-around tripod, seems sturdy, lots of adjustments, and works with my digital camera and lightweight video camera. The bubble level is crucial. The price is right; my friend bought the lesser model from a local camera shop for $20 more than I paid.
