## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this tripod is sturdy for Canon 5d mark 4 to hold with lenses 24-70? And 70-200?**
A: I have used it with a Canon 80D and the Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM Lens and it works fine.
Of course the lens has a mount bracket in the middle to "balance'" the weight of the camera and lens together.

**Q: does Rangers have a replacement plate for the tripod? i want to mount extra plates on some of my larger lenses instead of the camera body.**
A: After I read further into the description of the product there was a small summary under Product description that states the following : (NOTE: If you need more quick release plates, please search for ASIN: B07Y4TSQPK) . 
  After performing a search I came up with this product TYCKA Quick Release Plate Universal Replace, QR Plate Standard for Tripod with 1/4 inch Screw Black

**Q: Is this good for video? Smooth panning? Are handles available?**
A: Definitely good for video in terms of smooth panning as it has can rotate 360 degrees while
DSLR camera is sitting on Tripod. Not sure on handles.

**Q: Are extra quick release plates available separately?  If not, can anyone recommend one?**
A: I'm looking for an extra quick release plate. Any recommendations for this tripod?

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice Light-weight, compact tripod for travel or backpacking.
*by K***R on December 6, 2017*

I've had this for about two months, now, so I can't speak to the long-term durability. In the short-term, it's been working very nicely. I like the compact size and light weight. It fits nicely into my photo backpack (I have an Amazons essentials photo back pack, which I will have to review elsewhere), and would fit into any other backpack, small duffle bag, or any rolling luggage. It also comes with a small over-the-shoulder bag of its own, if you want to carry it that way. There are multiple locking stops for how wide you want to splay the legs, and three folding locks for the tripod legs as you telescope them out. You can also slide the middle support up a bit, as well. I actually did full extend the legs and raise the center support to max, to shoot over a railing. Long, nighttime exposures, with a super wide angle lens. The results were quite nice, but, again, this was with a super wide angle lens. I don't know how they calculate the maximum payload weight. It might be that they know the leg supports would telescope back in if you over load it? I haven't come anywhere close to that point. The legs are definitely spindly if fully extended. The heaviest load I shot with was with a Sigma 100-400mm C lens, which is only supposed to weigh about 2.5 pounds (though it seems heavier!). I shot a Nikon D3400, so that's also pretty light. However, because there is no collar mount for the Sigma lens, you've got the 2.5 pounds of lens leaning out in front of the camera. That's enough torque to make adjusting the tripod a little tricky. You need to tighten the ball head lock with the lens pointing a bit above target, as it will still sag a bit after tightening. Especially noticeable when you're shooting telephoto. On the other hand, when I was shooting super wide angle, everything moved smoothly and locked down tightly. If you can keep your payload balanced, that's how things should be. In other words, I think the camera movement upon tightening is more a function of the lens design than the tripod design. On a more general note, these ball head mounts are just wonderful for shooting dslr. In contrast to the old pan-and-tilt mounts, these are much quicker and easier to get level for either panorama or portrait mode, especially for lighter and well-balanced loads. As noted above, with the long and unbalanced telephoto lens, it was a little tougher, but still easier than with a pan-and-tilt. However, if you do want to pan, there is the built-in bubble level. I may add a few shots taken while using the tripod, just to demonstrate the stability.
