need ethernet connection to set up
on March 21, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this router (my 3rd one) by recommendation from the clerk, it has a reach of 5,000 sq ft. My house is3800 sq ft. so I thought it would work fine. I had problems at first getting a signal upstairs, then the day the geek squad guy came out, I moved the plug from the surge protector to the wall, and the signal came in fine, while he was there. One week later, I started having problems upstairs again, so I adjusted the antena, and seems to help, signal is fine again. Saved me allot of money not having to buy the mega router plus 2 power boosters that are compatible with that company's router, so if you live in an old house that is big and who knows what might be interfering, I think it works well for the money. For a new person to the wireless internet it was a little difficult to set up, I needed to be guided on the phone. Customer service was very good (and patient). The set up had to be re-done with a hardwire (ethernet) connection a second time because of some reason I didn't understand. It works fine now, so I shouldn't complain, but wouldn't be my first choice next time for problem spots. It really depends on your situation. Most homes it would be great. This was my 3rd one, and it is working great now.

Snap steady shots with your compatible DSLR camera using this Manfrotto MKCOMPACTACN-BK tripod that extends up to 60" and folds down to 17.8" for compact storage. A quick-release plate and locking system allow simple attachment, removal and adjustment.
 

Will it work and support the Nikon cool pix p900?

yes, that camera is light enough for this wonderful tripod

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
