Redsnapper RSF-284
I’ll keep this short; I have owned a cheap tripod from when I started with a DSLR four years ago, so this is a upgrade to a better tripod. I have handled other well-known makes (double the cost models) but can’t really compare, but would say it is well built and not what I would class ‘budget’.
I went for the RSF-284 over the RST-283 mainly because I liked the more compact size of it. I’ve taken pics of the tripod folded (legs fold back 180 to save space) and an iPhone next to it, to give an idea of size. The tripod feels very solid, but isn’t the lightest (nor too heavy for me). I really like the versatility of it, each leg offers different angles and of course height. An added bonus is the fact that one leg can be used as a monopod. The feet are rubber, but screw back to reveal spikes if needed. I got the tripod with the RSH-12 ball head and with this fitted it still fits in the bag, talking of which it is very well made and comes with a shoulder strap and an internal pocket with spare parts and a smaller centre column.
I have taken a few pictures to show the tripod. If anybody has any questions I’d be happy to try and answer them.
