Seen several different variants, quite a big presence on ebay - Anyone got one/seen one? are they any good? :shrug:

Post a link of the one you were looking at. I have just had a look at some and they look rubbish. Do not expect a tripod costing around £30 to be anything other than scrap tbh.

Looks like benro/3-legged thing copy ???

I was just curious as I've never seen any reviews - looks like they're Taiwanese or something - Comical "Engrish" all over the page.

'high angel shooting'

AMAZING.

But seriously they look just like benro knock-offs but more expensive. But also from a brand that I haven't heard of.

Crikey, that is a very expensive rip off!
I would steer well clear if I were you!

Don't worry, the wallet will be staying in the back pocket 'til the wife lets me buy one of these! http://www.3leggedthing.com/carbon-fiber-tripod-systems/3ltx1kit.html

Lovely piece of engineering....

At the end of the day they are all rip-offs of the Gitzo Traveller and all made in the Far East. For all we know these tripods could come from the same factory where 3LT are made. :shrug:

Quite true had the similar thing over electric guitars expensive and cheapo version both made in the same factory
