Nice. Anyone ever used one of these for glassing AND shooting off of? Wondering if it’s workable as a reasonably light shooting tripod

Is this legit?

I’ve had a 634 on my list for awhile. Is this price too good to pass up for the 734? Full pound heavier vs the 634.
B&H is legit, if that's what you're asking. I order from them several times a month.

Load capacity is the biggest difference between the two. This one would likely be better for shooting, but i have no personal experience

You’re right. 734 is almost double the capacity at 11 lbs. Thank you for pointing that out!

I just got a 634 and almost spit out my coffee at that price. But now looking at the extra pound, I’ll probably keep it for glassing only. I would imagine it could be used to shoot off of too?

Thank you Truck24hr, that tripod should work perfect for my wife’s binoculars and the DSLR I bought her for Christmas. I like that Slik are not made in China (as far as I know).

Yikes, didn’t know I needed one but bought anyways due to deal.

What pan/tilt head does everyone run for glassing setups with something like this?

Here is another tripod deal if anybody is interested.
Sirui ST124 with VA-5 head for $140.
The head alone usually goes for more than that price. I already have one of these combos and it has been fantastic. I can’t personally vouch for the vendor, but they looked to get good reviews. I ordered one.

Another good deal. Focus Camera is good too. I order from them quite a bit too.
