Good, not great2009-01-30
I needed a tall tripod but without much money to spend my choices were limited. I have been using it for two years, and though it is cheaply made and minor things break, it still works well. It is fairly lightweight, which I need since I hike with it (I hooked a guitar strap to it so I can sling it over my shoulder.) Criticisms: Tension on vertical pole is hard to adjust and does not hold settings but that is no big deal to me. One leg came out of its socket but duct tape fixed that. Screw fell out of vertical crank handle but it was easy to repair. Operationally, my biggest gripe is the pan tension adjustment. Hard to get just the right resistance for panning, so I would not recommend it for video work (I shoot stills). Tilt tension works great. For the money it is a pretty good tall tripod for still photography and while not especially durable it has been easy to fix. A really good tripod costs a lot more money.
Ultra Series Tripod2008-05-20
So far so good with this tripod and it is a great accessory for my brand new Canon HV30. The bubble levels add so much, especially when shooting on uneven ground and you're trying to level out your shot. With that said, adjusting the sticks are a simple task and the locking knobs and mount screws seem to be durable. I've put the Ultra Series Tripod through a few test runs and shot set ups so I'm not sure how it will do should filming get a bit rugged, but I will update the review should anything adverse happen. I'd definitely recommend it for the amateur filmmaker as it has measuring markers that a script supervisor/continuity person can take note of should you need to reshoot or whatever. Casual video enthusiasts can utilize this as well but may not use all of the features.

Digital camera batteries
Batteries are vital for all photography and makiing sure that you have a spare set is essential if you intend to take alot of pictures. Print digital also recommend that when deciding upon a digital camera keep in mind what sort of batteries it takes. Does it take rechargeable batteries, are the batteries built and do you have to plug it into the mains, or does the camera only take standard batteries, if so then it can become exspensive if you are a keen photographer and use the camera alot. There are three types of rechargeable batteries: NiCD, NiMH and Lithium-Ion. Nickel Metal Hydride are the most popular rechargeable batteries at present.
