It's a bit counter-intuitive NOT to do a video review on this tripod, but it would be difficult to film it whilst using it! This has got to be one of the best tripods I have ever tried/used. With its remote conrol grip, it's specifically designed for use with Sony Camcorders having a remote connect port. For this use, and any other photographic use - video or stills - it is superb, and ranks with many of the more traditional names in tripod design. With its fully felxible adjustment and spirit-level, I have finally achieved totally smooth panning, tilting and zooming in video shooting, giving a truly professional feel to my humble achievements. I do not hesitate to recommend it to anyone wishing to up their game in video or still mounted-camera shooting. The remote control, in particular, is ergonomically perfect and functions as well as the "collective" controls on an up-spec helicopter! Buy one now!
