The height.

I’m 5’10” and my camera is eye level when fully extended. Perfect. 

Solid as rock. Thick legs.

It’s solid, sturdy and strong. No flexing. And it easily holds my Canon 5D Mark iv and 17-40L Lens

It’s light.

Brushed aluminium & carbon fibre. A very premium feel, solid but light enough to carry and no fatigue. With a high quality carry case too. 

Compact.

Packs into overhead luggage to take on the plane. I went through several check-ins and baggage checks and it was fine. 

Price.

About £350 for the kit – tripod, ball head and case.
