easy to use

This tripod was pretty good, light weight, easy to set up and manuever. My issue was with the stability of the legs with the telephoto lens. Not stable in wind. There is a hook to hang wt., but I think I'll wait and spend a bit more $ for a higher wt load. This would be great for hiking with a point and shoot. or 50 mm lens. If the legs were a bit more formidable I would have kept it, I may go the next one up, or 2 steps up for wt limits.

first time I used this to blow off my keyboard water came out of it al over the keyboard. If they recommend to sparay so many inches away they should say so on the can before you ruin your expensive electronics. Other than that it's fine Jusst be careful the first time you use it or if it's been sitting for a while.

great bag

Verified Purchase:Yes
I got this for our trip this fall to Seattle, a waterproof bag sounded safe as much as it rains there. I've aquired 3 lenses and many many different filters to lug along. Using the bag that came w/ the camera, always had to decide which ones to take. Now I can take it all, including cleaning stuff just in case. Extra clips ect...Theres a ton of straps, some of which I removed. Can tie a tripod to the bottom, and compartment for water bottle and a jacket. Has built in pockets for extra sd cards, and 3 layers of compartments for organization. I wont need the storage bags I got for the individual lenses in this bag, they stay snug and easy to get to in the adjustable compartments. This was one of the better camera accessories I've purchased. This bag is very versatile for travel to hiking around, or just grabbing your bag on the go.

How does it do windy conditions?

I have an Olympus EM10, so not very heavy, but will the winds in Fairbanks, Alaska knock it over?
definately! It does have a hook, but legs are thin. Wt limit is 3.3 lbs I believe. Maybe with your camera and a wt from the center hook you would be fine. Depends on how heavy your camera is. I had a telephoto lens and would say no. But if yours is a point and shoot, it's perfect, easy to use, quick set up, good head. Locks are good too.

Will this fit my canon rebel t4i?

I wouldn't use it for my SL1 with the telephoto kit lens, a bit unstable in any wind. (similar cameras) I would go a step up to the 169$ range if you plan on being outside in the wind. This with the bottom leg section all the way extended was wobbly. Loved the pistol grip ball head. I am going to the Manfrotto MK190X3-BH Kit 190X aluminium 3-section tripod with 496RC2 ball head or one more below that. They have a tilt center colom to get low for macro and boom like operation for fast subjects (birds) as well, wt limit much higher if you want to add a gimble later on.

Is this tripod compatible with a Canon t6s?

No to light in the wt limit. I would go next model up (169 range) or more if you plan to add extra lighting

What does manfrotto list as the maximum weight capacity?

I believe the capacity on this one is small, I think it was 3.3 lbs.on the head and 6 lbs on the legs, but my canon sl1 with 70-300 lens was a bit scary.

Will it support a canon 7d with 400mm lens

I wouldn't unless there isn't any wind. I have SL1 rebel (small body) and it is unstable with the telephoto lens when all extensions extended. I recommend the next model up, I took mine back

Make hands-free calls and listen to music with these Sony wireless in-ear sport headphones. The wireless design frees your range of motion, and the microphone makes conversations more convenient. Listen to music for over 8 hours on a single charge with these Sony wireless in-ear sport headphones, which are moisture-resistant for use during strenuous workouts.
 

Does it stay put in your ears?

yes, as long as they are wedged in there. Pretty comfy, but found myself wanting to take htem out after a couple hrs.

How many pictures from my iPhone 6 will this hold ? Going on 30 day trip to Australia and I love to take pictures !

depends on how much your card will hold. Probably hold more than you can take. If you're worried, get a bigger one. 32 size hold about equal to 5 dvd's if that helps
