Yes, Manfrotto are great, this one can't compare. It is more supposed to be the option for when you want to stay light.
You can't even adjust its height.


But, although it looks flimsy, after trying it and holding it I did change my mind in that. I looks as some very cheap product, but it is actually very well designed and deliberately simple. Not as steady and strong as a Manfrotto, it is incredibly steady nontheless! Before I read the specs, I thought it could sustain even something huge. I have been pushing on it, trying to bend it, and it felt great in my hands. smile
But again, specs tell me its limit is nonetheless quite low.
