Telescope Tripod2009-05-27
The tripod worked very well with the telescope I had purchased. The problem was that most tripods are rather flimsy. I needed a heavy duty tripod for the Celestron scope because it is very heavy. It worked well.
Almost perfect2009-02-22
Sturdy and stable, though a few plastic parts I don't care too much about. Should be a bit taller and needs a lock on the Altitude movement. Otherwise, this is nice product. I've always found Celestron's consumer products to be of much better construction than Meade.
Bad for binoculars2008-10-21
Bought this for my Celestron SkyMaster 100x25 binoculars. Bad choice (binoculars were a bad choice too). With the mounting screw firmly attached to the binocs, it still has a lot of play. Maybe with lighter binocs or a balanced scope it would work better, but this the the recommended tripod for the SkyMaster 100x25.
Substantial and effective2008-09-21
I love this tripod. I ordered it for use as a digiscope tripod because of the control I'd have with the fine-adjustments that are difficult to make free-hand or even with a fluid panhead mount. This tripod solved that problem. Excellent adjustments. I also love the sliding mount since my spotting scope is a lot of weight hanging out a long distance from the camera mount. It is also not a light piece of equipment, but most of that is because it is very well built and sturdy as a rock. When your trying to get a picture of a tiny critter from half a mile away, you don't need some flimsy tripod jiggling and vibrating at the slightest hint of a breeze or hand touch. Considering there are other tripods at twice or triple the price that do the same thing, this is a top notch purchase. Worth every penny. I've already recommended it to a few friends who have telescopes and digiscope setups..

Professional video camera
A Professional video camera (often called a Television camera even though the use has spread) is a high-end device for recording electronic moving images (as opposed to a movie camera, that records the images on film). Originally developed for use in television studios, they are now commonly used for corporate and educational videos, music videos, direct-to-video movies, etc. There are two types of professional video cameras: High end portable, recording cameras (essentially, high-end camcorders) used for ENG and EFP image acquisition, and studio cameras which lack the recording capability of a camcorder, and are often fixed on studio pedestals. Portable professional cameras are generally much larger than consumer cameras and are designed to be carried on the shoulder. Technology It is common for professional cameras to split the incoming light into the three primary colors that humans are able to see, feeding each color into a separate pickup tube (in older cameras) or charge ...
