Hello Guys,
I got Vanguard Espod CX 203AP from Paytm few days ago. Seller name is Photo Galaxy and his service is prompt. Item was secure and in good condition. Here is the link
The tripod feels very solid, heavy and sturdy. The legs feel like they are made of steel. Plastic quality is also great. When fully extended, it rests steadily on ground especially when camera is attached. I'm using it with my D3200 with 18-55mm and 55-200mm lenses at all angles without any issues. Center column can be extended for few inches after that there may be some wobble if shutter button is used so its better to use remote or timer instead. I won't extend the center column anyhow. Pan head is smooth and stays firm when fastened. May not be easy to operate like ball head but I like it this way. Locking and unlocking mount plate isn't so easy and it is small but holds the camera well though. Total load capacity is 3.5 KGs but you can load upto 2 KGs without issues.
I'm sure this will serve me for life time and I would recommend this to any DX DSLR camera owners looking for budget tripods. Its far better to invest in this tripod then other brands who import from China and print their brand names.
Thanks...
Best Regards
