  • Situation: I wanted a Carbon Fiber Tripod for hunting, but didn't want to spend RRS (Really Right Stuff) money.
    Considered:
    Vortex Radian
    Revic Hunter
    Leofoto LS356
    Leupold Guide
    Athlon CF32

    Thank you for doing this review. This really helps with knowing the difference between those top brands and the differences you get.

    Good video review. This would be a great tripod for hunting, glassing, photography/video near your vehicle.
    But not for hiking 2-5 miles in the western backcountry, too heavy!

    I know this vid is almost a year old, but I just picked up a Leofoto LVM-324C, VERY comparable to a Vortex Radian carbon fiber... I went with a leveling head. $280 for the tripod. Has lever locks on the legs.

    You should look up Luckett sticks.
    Not as versatile as a tripod, but maybe even more stable for shooting and significantly lighter

      @@snaph you can use binoculars with them, same as you could with any stick.
      When I was doing some long range stuff in Colorado, I carried an ultra lightweight tripod for the spotting scope and I shot off of a large bipod (I did not have Luckett sticks yet)
      I love my RRS tripod, but it's alot to carry for for a shooting platform.

    @musician445 Год назад

    I think the basket is meant to cover the top for camoflage. I think thats why there is a hole in the bottom to let the thread portion stick out for attaching a spotting scope. But not sure exactly, either way it works as a basket too!

      It’s to add weight for stability when you leave it stationary with glass or a camera on top. Drops the center of gravity

    The ball head is removable?? You can mount any head on it?? Like manfrotto junior 10 geared?
