Digital camera reviews of Sunpak 620-757B Ultra Series Tripod

Digital camera Review: Good, not great
Summary: 3 Stars

I needed a tall tripod but without much money to spend my choices were limited. I have been using it for two years, and though it is cheaply made and minor things break, it still works well. It is fairly lightweight, which I need since I hike with it (I hooked a guitar strap to it so I can sling it over my shoulder.) Criticisms: Tension on vertical pole is hard to adjust and does not hold settings but that is no big deal to me. One leg came out of its socket but duct tape fixed that. Screw fell out of vertical crank handle but it was easy to repair. Operationally, my biggest gripe is the pan tension adjustment. Hard to get just the right resistance for panning, so I would not recommend it for video work (I shoot stills). Tilt tension works great. For the money it is a pretty good tall tripod for still photography and while not especially durable it has been easy to fix. A really good tripod costs a lot more money.
