Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Velbon DF-40 Deluxe Lightweight Photo/Video Tripod with 3-Way Panhead and Quick Release Shoe
Customer Review: Okay, for its cost
Summary: 5 Stars
I have two of these. I've recently started digiscoping (I use a Vortex 20-60x80 ED spotting scope married to a Nikon P5100) and find this DF-40 is a little too light-weight. When I try to pan, its hurky-jerky (probably due to the weight of the load on top.) So, I purchased a Quantaray QSX-9500 Heavy-Duty Tripod with Fluid Head. Much, much better than the DF-40, pannig is now smooth as silk.
But for holding point and shoot cameras, you can't beat it.
