 Decent September 11, 2008

decent, trusty, versatile I think I wished I went with another choice though
 Rock Solid August 16, 2008
Got this tripod together with the Manfroto Midi Ball Head for my Pentax K20D and related gear. It definitely bestows a high degree of confidence that this tripod will hold the most extensive of bodies and lenses without any issue. The tripod (together with the head) is bulky, but at the same time it is very stable and less subject to vibration or shaking due to wind.
The legs can be spread out wide enough that the tripod is almost at ground level. Additionally, the center column can be swiveled 90 degrees to take pictures of subjects on the ground. It also has a built in buble level and a hook in case you need to add weights for added stability (not really needed IMHO).
I've used a lighter Manfrotto tripod for many years and am very pleased with their product.
Sturdy and useful tripod for extended trips and field use August 10, 2008
I bought this tripod for a trip from the USA to central Siberia in order to image the total solar eclipse there in Aug 2008. The tripod is a bit on the heavy side, but it is always worth having something a bit more on the heavy and sturdy side than having something that shakes... especially in windy conditions... like in Siberia that day! The wind was a constant 25mph+ gusts up to 40mph. The tripod stayed put. No issues. I recommend it. Nice features for winter users: foamed legs. A hook for hanging stability weight, and the ability to place the boom out to aim down... great for nature photographers.
Great general purpose tripod June 21, 2008

Bogen/Manfrotto has been making great tripods for a very long time. The 190XPROB is a variation on the old 3021 by Bogen.
Let me start by saying that this tripod is not the lightest tripod out there, it might not be a great choice for a tripod to take hiking, but if you don't have to carry it long distances, this model will work very well for you.
It is very stable and the adjustable center shaft allows for a very wide array of camera setups. It is simply very versatile. Team it up with a good head, a Bogen 3047 in my case, and you will have a great setup for a lot less than many other options out there.
Good prosumer tripod June 14, 2008

This is my first real tripod since I got serious about photography. Its not the lightest out there, but its weight to quality ratio is probably one of the best. Good price and build quality. I will probably buy another tripod for traveling, as this one combined with a good head, will weigh in on you on long trips.
