I honestly thought with the National Geographic name on this tripod, it would have some type of quality standards. Wow! Was I ever wrong. I've had one leg adjustment stop break twice and now I have 2 others that are broken. The camera store that I purchased it from did not want to deal with the issue initially but ended up replacing the part. The legs are flimsy and the quality is one step above junk. If you have a quality camera then spend the extra money to get something decent. In my mind the Manfrotto name has been tainted by my experience. I even paid more that what I'm seeing it for now. You stand a better chance of getting better quality from Fisher Price than this product. Please don't make the mistake I did.
