Slik 522- Opinions

[SlowElk]

I am looking at getting a new, lightweight, packable tripod that will fit in a daypack. i am mounting binoculars, currently Vortex Razor 10X42. The Slik CF522 seems like it fits my needs. I'd like your opinions, or recommendations. I need to keep the overall collapsed length at 18 inches. Thanx in advance!

Not a fan. It's an old, no longer made model. The best tripod is the Sirui T024 with the va5 head. It's Carbon Fiber and the head is the best on the market for the money. We are giving MM members 15% off and Sirui is giving 15% back on that price.

Call me if you have any questionms or would like one at the discounted price

I use the Slik Sprint Pro with the pan head. 18.7 inches, 2.5 lbs.

I just got this for back pack hunting to use with binoculars and Kowa 553 spotting scope. It's cheap and light weight. Fatrooster.

Here is a review on the Surui TO24 and TO25 and they look like a really good choice as well.
