Posted by Thomas w Donohue on 13th Mar 2017 Great product and an outstanding company. And this company has some of the fastest shipping I’ve seen. Works great in prone or standing positions. I didn’t realize how “Beefy” it was from the pictures. Thank you very much, Joshua and Hogsaddle! I will be back soon I high recommend to purchase saddle& tripod combo. I will take this combo to the long range PRS training and It also provide opportunity to practice ambidextrous strait shooting or angular shooting at 100m targets from low prone to high kneeing and standing position. This combo will bring a new concept for both PRS and advanced marksmanship practice. Great product when paired with PIG Saddle. This tripod is very sturdy and is very nice. It dropped down low enough for prone work You can' t go wrong with this tripod for the price. Found the slik, used it in my first match and love it.
Very happy will be buying another.īrand new in the PRS competitions and needed a tripod but don' t have the funds to fork out for a 1100$ one. The 700DX has foam-padded upper segments to ease carrying on your shoulder and working in the cold, and its simple angled rubber leg tips give a firm footing while also allowing you to carry it upon some aircraft.īought for blind hunting was impressed with sturdy quality and the adjustability. The rapid-type center column cannot rotate accidentally, and the lever locks work securely with a minimum of movement.
SLIK TRIPODS REVIEWS PROFESSIONAL
It is a very professional unit whether you're concerned with strength, fit and finish, or refinement of operation.
Using a "Tri-Titanium" aerospace alloy compromised of aluminum, magnesium, and titanium, the Slik DX700Pro Tripod Legs has a strength-to-weight ratio 40% greater than comparable tripods in its class. The short center column allows the shooter to get all the way down to a 11.5" high prone position. This tripod paired with a direct mounted PIG Saddle can do almost anything a more expensive tripod kit can do (At a fraction the cost). No fancy Italian names or high-speed acronyms needed. The DX700PRO tripod has a well-known reputation for being the best bang for your buck. A Saddle or ball head would be an additional purchase. Other lightweight travel tripods to consider include the Hama Traveller Mini Pro at £19.95, Hama Traveller Compact Pro at £35.00, Manfrotto MKC3-P02 Compact at £36.95, Giottos MT9340Bat £64.95 and Benro A0180T at £79.99.*DX700PRO tripod is sold as the tripod legs alone. The pro version, which has a maximum height of 1.6m, is available for £64.00. The Slik Sprint Mini II GM tripod is a budget travel tripod, available for £54.99. By unscrewing the centre column in the middle, you can quickly switch your camera to be underneath the traditional position and by adjusting the legs you can set it to get as close as your lens allows. If you like to take pictures of subjects which are extremely close to the floor the Slik Sprint Mini is ideal.
You'll be OK if you have a camera with a tilting screen and can use live view, if not, the pro version extends to a more comfortable 1.6m. It's certainly worth noting that if you have back problems, you may find this tripod hard to use, as you need to bend over to look through your viewfinder. The quick release plate means that you save time by being able to quickly attach your camera. Setup is easy, although can take a little while to unclip all the leg sections and extend, there is no weight in the legs to help them extend so it needs to be done manually. The Slik Sprint Mini II GM is certainly lightweight and small enough to get in a camera bag, I carried it around the Highlands in my bag alongside a Nikon D3000 as well as my Tamron 10-24mm f/3.5-4.5 Di II and 70-300mm f/4-5.6 lenses.
