Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Davis & Sanford ProVista Airlift with FM18 Head Tripod

Customer Review: Not what you would expect
Summary: 2 Stars

I already own the claw and ball style 7315 davis and stanford tripod, which is the little brother of this one. I was excited to get a stable tripod that would put the camera lens over 6' with grat stability. What Adorama, through Amazon, sent me was a used piece of junk. It was a returned item sent back out to me a full price. It had a bent pan arm, the bubble, for leveling, was defective, it was scratched, and teh head was jittery. None of the characteristics I recieved from my Newegg purchase for the other tripod. Adorama will sell anything. Good or bad.
