Outstanding Tripod

[Constant (David)]

Today a IFOOTAGE WILDBULL T1 ALUMINIUM TRIPOD (IF-T1) tripod was delivered. Its not a budget tripod, the better part of $500 but.... my God what a tripod.
Unlike any photographic tripod I've owned this tripod "crosses over" into astronomy, easily handling a 15kg load.
One feature separtes it from most other tripods, the cross bar supports are adjustable in lenght, the net effect substantial load suspended comfortably and securely @ +2m. Another very workable feature the self leveling bowl, I'd not used one before, what a delight.
After paying about with the Wildbull tripod i ordered a second, yes its that impressive!
Now when travelling i need only one tripod for birding and astro. With a d750 Nikon + 600 zsigma Sport, it felt like the rig was screwed into the ground.
The only downside the tripod is aluminium and VERY heavy. I'm not mobile, so the fact its heavy is no deterrence as i can't move about.
As Molly said "do yourself a favor" check it out i purchased mine from DC Expert. Ive bought some Ziess lenses from them, they have an eye for quality.

Impressive specs. I think a photo is required...

Sounds good indeed! What sort of head do you use with it, if I may ask?

ATM the Tele Pod is on the tripod, great for visual. Most any Astro head fits, its such a luxury having a "bowl" it makes finding perfect level a breeze.
My herd is way too large, both in scopes and mounts, this triop looks to be very useful, in the same way the Tele Pod mount is so functional in its simplicity.
