I use this with a Miller Compass 15 head for my 5D Mk2. It is a fantastic tripod. You can get down very low if you need too eliminating the need for a high hat or get as high as 2m. This is all the latitude you will ever need without going on to a crane or jib. It is solidly built and the legs locks are easy to use. You don't need a spreader with this tripod which I really rate. Very adjustable leg angles and height. It folds down very compact. It is now my main tripod for all of my video work. I give it an enthusiastic 5 stars.
